"The evidence of the Ghana and Nigeria experiences suggests that prospects of realising the right to information are more propitious if the challenge is civil society led and driven. The successful passage of a right to information act in any one country should also provide the necessary impetus for other countries to join the global wave of change towards greater disclosure and transparency."
