NewsOnline reports that the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) has said that all newly elected officers, including the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, his Vice, Kashim Shettima, and state governors, either newly elected or re-elected must declare their assets before they are sworn in on May 29 or they will face the consequences for not doing so.
This online newspaper understands that Dr. Mustapha Musa, the Special Assistant to CCB Chairman, Prof. Mohammed Isah, stated this in a chat with the media on Tuesday. According to him, the Bureau has done its part by issuing the asset declaration forms to all newly elected and re-elected public officers across the country.
He, however, noted that some of the forms issued have not been returned. According to Musa, the constitution is clear on the consequences for those that fail to return the form before they are sworn in.
Emphasizing the importance of the asset declaration for all elected and appointed public officers, Musa said:
Musa said that aside from elected public officers, appointed public officers and civil servants should also endeavour to declare their assets. He added that apart from asset declaration, the officers must comply with all the codes of the Bureau.
