Abstract:
This study interrogated the effect of corruption on the utilization of foreign aids in Nigeria. Over the years, the country has continued to borrow and receive foreign aid; yet tangible projects are hardly seen leaving the state worse than it used to be. To give credence to the study, two research questions were raised which include: why has foreign aid not been able to meet its major demands in Nigeria? How has corruption affected the utilization of foreign aids in Nigeria? The study employed mixed design, utilizing both documentary and interview section as its methods of data collection. It was thus analysed using deductive argument. It discovered that foreign aids in Nigeria have failed to meet its major objectives due to the deep rooted corruption ravaging the state. Again, it revealed that burdensome demand on the recipient states are major limitation to proper utilization of foreign aids in Nigeria. As such, the study recommends that there should be a review on the major institutions of government and make them more effective. That could be possible if the institution is ready to deal with the man stronger than the institutions who operates behind the screen.
