ACC Highlights Sierra Leone’s Open Governance Gains at OGP Week 1

The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) reaffirms its commitment to transparency, accountability, and citizen-centered governance, noting significant progress in promoting openness and integrity to combat corruption.

The Commission disclosed at the 15th Open Government Partnership (OGP) Week celebration, organized by the National Council for Civic Education and Democracy at the Foreign Service Academy Auditorium in Freetown.

The Commissioner of the ACC, Francis Ben Kaifala, reflected on his OGP journey, which dates back to 2013 when he served as Legal Adviser to the OGP process in Sierra Leone.

He noted that since becoming Commissioner, one of his major priorities has been advancing openness and public access to governance processes, stressing that although the ACC is an independent institution, it remains committed to supporting the government’s broader agenda for transparency and accountability.
