This was made know during an interactive session that cut across the diverse services at Presken Hotel, Ikeja, Lagos.
The anti-corruption campaign, according to the executive chairman of the Centre, Debo Adeniran βhas been in existence for a long time, we discovered that many agencies that have been projecting this campaign have only been targeting the elites and not the grassroots and the middle class. In CACOL, we did a paradigm shift from the elite to the grassroots to bring the advocacy and enlightenment campaign to the grassroots who serve as the primary victims of corruption in our society.
