Operatives of Nigerian Copyright Commission (NCC) have been charged to uphold the Public Service ethics of transparency, accountability, integrity and professionalism for proactive service delivery in the implementation of the Commission’s regulatory and enforcement mandates. Mr. John O. Asein, director-general of NCC, who gave the charge in Abuja while inaugurating the Commission’s Anti-Corruption and Transparency Unit (ACTU) recently, stated that the Commission’s operatives must align themselves with the anti-corruption policy of this administration. He charged the Unit to develop a system for also monitoring the activities of the Commission’s operatives across the country to check operational lapses. In his words: “The Commission exists to serve the interests of authors, copyright owners, users and society as a whole. Indicating that ACTU members would be held to a much higher standard, Mr. Asein noted that its members were appointed based on their integrity which must not be compromised.
