The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has launched a new anti-corruption framework aimed at strengthening transparency, accountability and ethical conduct across the organisation. The framework was unveiled at TCN headquarters in Abuja on Tuesday.

The framework consists of four policies covering anti-bribery and corruption, anti-money laundering and fraud, conflict of interest, and whistleblowing. TCN said the policies were compiled into a single booklet by its Anti-Corruption and Transparency Unit (ACTU) to provide staff with clear standards for preventing, identifying, reporting and responding to unethical practices.

TCN Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Sule Ahmed Abdulaziz, represented by the Executive Director, Human Resources and Corporate Services, Abiodun Afolabi-Fadahunsi, said the initiative reflected the company’s commitment to integrity and accountability. He urged employees to familiarise themselves with the policies and ensure that their provisions guide their daily decisions and conduct.

The Chairman of TCN’s ACTU, Benibo Erakevwe, said combating corruption required the participation of all employees rather than a single department. She said the policies were intended to strengthen the company’s systems against bribery, fraud, favouritism, abuse of office and other misconduct, adding that their effectiveness would ultimately depend on implementation.
