Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has launched its latest publication titled Uncovering Corruption in Nigeria: A Manual for Investigative Journalists. The manual was presented by journalist and human rights activist Richard Akinnola at an interactive session for investigative journalists from across Nigeria which held at the CITIHEIGHT Hotel, Lagos. According to Akinnola, “The public has a right of access to information which is a public concern and of which the public ought to know. The newspapers, TV and radio stations are the agent, so to speak of the public to collect the information and to tell the public of it. In support of the right of access, they should not, in general, be compelled to disclose their source of information. Neither by means of discovery by trial nor by questions or cross-examination at the trial nor by subpoena.” The manual published with the support of the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) read in part: “Painstaking research and patience are the dual hallmarks of an investigative journalist. Fortunately, google is everybody’s friend. You need to check and double check whatever your sources are giving you. Anyone who walks to you to give you documents incriminating someone has a purpose or agenda, and it may not be altruistic. “Corruption is not just when someone in public office is engaged in financial malfeasance. It encompasses abuse of office and public morality.” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedevelopmentnews/message
