The newly appointed Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), Dr MUSA ALIYU says he will be the lead prosecution of persons the commission charges with corruption.

The chairman pledged this during his maiden interaction with the media in Abuja.

ALIYU, who said that he would lead by example, expressed the determination to do things differently from what obtained in the past.

He said one of the steps he would be taking to improve the system was to show himself in court during the prosecution of persons charged with corruption by the ICPC.

The ICPC boss, however, added that he would assign some of the cases to senior lawyers in the commission from time to time.
