The current OCRP programme is a three-year project also funded by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation under its broad “On-Nigeria Anti-corruption programme” and would last through to 2024.

This third phase of the OCRP focused on recruiting journalists from community, local and grassroots media houses doing critical reporting across print, electronic and digital media in the six regions of the country.

The project will build capacity, provide mentoring and financial support for selected journalists to work with the ICIR to undertake investigative and data-driven reports on budget and procurement processes at all levels of government.
