Treasury Single Account and the Anti-Corruption Drive in Nigeria: Implications for Efficient Public Service Download PDF
Praise Ongoiyerimo SAIYOU, Temidayo David OLADIPO

Abstract:
This article assesses Nigeria's Treasury Single Account (TSA) system in light of the Buhari administration's anti-corruption campaign. It aims to determine how much the policy has improved Nigeria's efforts to combat corruption and manage income, as well as how that has affected the effectiveness of the public sector. While the TSA has some benefits in fighting corruption in Nigeria, the evidence is fragmentary and subjective. Furthermore, the TSA's possibilities for public sector efficiency are hampered by issues such as the country's epidemic of corruption, the vagueness of specific regulatory laws, and lack of thoroughness. As a result, the TSA's policy and legal frameworks must be re-evaluated to strengthen its comprehensiveness and remittance by government ministries, departments, and agencies.
