Answer:

Examples of people with integrity from Nigeria are Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and Gani Fawehinmi.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala is an economist and expert in international development who had a long career with the World Bank and was finance minister in Nigeria from 2011-2015 and earlier from 2003-2006. She also is a board member for the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI). She was a candidate to be President of the World Bank and has been nominated as a candiate to be the director general of the WTO.

Gani Fawehinmi was known as the "the people's lawyer" and "Senior Advocate of the Masses", according to his obituary published in The Independent Newspaper. He was committed to fighting the corruption that was inherent in many of Nigeria's military regimes and he faced persecution and repression himself. He argued a case against the government to the Supreme Court of Nigeria for the killing of Dele Giwa, a newspaper journalist.

Both Fwehinmi and Okonjo-Iweala dedicated their professional lives to fighting for better welfare and justice in Nigeria and elsewhere showing they have high moral standards that define a person with integrity.
