Nigeria Goes Down in the List of Non-Corrupted Countries, Places 144th in the World

Nigeria remains one of the most corrupt nations in the world, according to the latest report by Transparency International.
 

The annual Corruption Perceptions Index ranks countries and territories based on how corrupt their public sector is perceived to be.

A country or territory’s score indicates the perceived level of public sector corruption on a scale of 0 - 100, where 0 means that a country is perceived as highly corrupt and 100 means it is perceived as very clean. A country's rank indicates its position relative to the other countries and territories included in the index. This year's index includes 177 countries and territories (see the map below).
