Corruption is a crime that must be fought together because it can hamper various development processes and destroy the manners of life in society, nation and state. The most visible impacts of corruption are inequality in economic life, damage to socio-cultural life, and threats to the life of the nation (NKRI), including poverty, crime, education, health and damage to the government and political system. One of the acts of corruption that is currently widespread is corruption of village funds by individual Village Heads and other village officials. The greater the management of village funds, the greater the risk of corruption at the village level. On the other hand, as a diverse nation, Indonesia has a lot of wisdom that can ward off corrupt behavior. because it contains shame, high levels of socialism and simple living as well as strong social and customary sanctions. This research is aimed at looking at the Na'beok tradition in the Biboki traditional community, especially in East T'eba Village and how the implementation of this tradition can have an impact on efforts to prevent acts of corruption in the village. It is recommended that local wisdom traditions owned by the community be established through village regulations or regulations that are formally binding in the administration of government in the village.
