Abstract
The article appraises the various approaches to conceptualizing the wrong in bribery adopting a comparative analysis of the UK Bribery Act 2010 (UK Act) and Nigerian anti-bribery statutes. The article found that the definition of the offence of bribery under the UK Act best captures what is wrong with bribery and should form a platform to reform Nigerian anti-bribery laws. The paper also found that the articulation of what is wrong with bribery also provides a tool to understand what is wrong with other manifestations of corruption.
