Based upon the literature review, local government authorities (LGAs) of Tanzania are prime locus of corruption despite existence of anti corruption measures. But to what extent LGAs’ anti corruption measures are enhanced is still unknown. It is because of this knowledge gap that the researcher examined LGAs measures on corruption reduction by specifically focusing on the extent employees’ awareness, transparency, accountability, legal and disciplinary actions are enhanced in order to reduce corruptible acts in LGAs of Tanzania. The study was a survey and it was conducted in Babati district council. Data for the study were collected through questionnaire, documentary sources and interview. Population of the study was citizens and employees. The planed sample size was one hundred and thirty respondents aged eighteen years and above. The examination done revealed that first, awareness was disseminated to employees through leaflets, brochures and seminars; second, for the time being, there is openness on funds allocated for development projects, citizens are well informed about cost of the service as well as various procurement services; third, majority of employees have agreed functions, there is effective way of assessing performance, and employees at the village and ward level for the time being they do not really practice accountability; and last, there were three corruption case in the court of law from 2011 to 2013. However the study concluded that, the aforesaid anti corruption measures for the time being have not been effectively implemented into practice although, as per study findings, they help to reduce corruption. Last but not least, the study recommended more awareness and participation; openness on councils’ operations; all procedures, rules and regulations should be adhered to and there must be effective supervision particularly at the village and ward levels; accountability should be exercised and enforced; and employees should have the courage to monitor and secretly report corruption activities to his/her authority or to any other appropriate organ(s) and immediate actions should be taken to any employee found guilty of corruption offence.
