Alot of manpower and time is needed before anyone can be taken to task for corruption.
Those are the words of FICAC Director for investigations, Sanaila Seru as the country marks International Anti-Corruption day today.
While addressing visitors at their open-day, Seru said that though close to 9,000 complaints have been lodged with the Commission, investigations will take months to complete.
