It undermines public trust, devalues merit, and weakens the foundation of learning, particularly in STEM education where precision and ethical standards are paramount. Objective: This study aims to examine the negative effects of corruption in education and explore effective strategies to mitigate its impact in order to improve educational standards and foster integrity, especially within STEM disciplines. Method: A qualitative descriptive approach is employed, involving literature reviews and observational analysis of documented corruption cases in the education sector. Data were collected through document analysis, interviews with education stakeholders, and a review of institutional policies related to anti-corruption measures. Result: The findings reveal that corruption in education takes various forms, such as academic fraud, grade manipulation, admissions bribery, and dishonest examination practices. These malpractices contribute to the deterioration of educational quality, the erosion of public trust in educational institutions, and the loss of core ethical values in academic environments. Conclusion: To combat the degeneration caused by corruption, systemic educational reforms are essential. These should include increased transparency, stricter regulatory enforcement, and comprehensive anti-corruption policies. Moreover, fostering integrity and ethical values from early education levels is vital in cultivating a corruption-resistant academic culture.

The data also showed that insecurity has profound effects on economic development, education, and daily life. The findings underscore the urgent need for a multi-sectoral approach to address these issues. Conclusion: Insecurity in the South-East, especially in Anambra State, is a complex, multifaceted issue requiring immediate and sustained interventions. Understanding its root causes is crucial to devising effective and lasting solutions. Contribution: The findings of this study provide relevant insights for policymakers, civil society actors, and especially Nigerian youths, emphasizing their role in fostering peace and development.
