The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project, SERAP, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to request the Code of Conduct Bureau, CCB, to publish his assets.
SERAP also appealed to the President to encourage Vice-President Kashim Shettima, ministers, leaders of the National Assembly, state governors, and chairmen of Nigeria’s 774 local governments to also request the CCB to publish their assets.
Tinubu had during his first Presidential Media Chat last Monday, said he would consider asking the CCB to publish his assets.
In a letter signed by its deputy director, Kolawole Oluwadare, dated December 28, 2024, SERAP stated that it welcomed the President’s reported decision to consider asking the CCB to publish his assets as a signal of his intent, willingness, and commitment to show leadership on an important matter of public interest.
“But your ‘consideration’ would ‘carry more weight’ if you were to promptly translate the intent into action by asking the CCB to publish your assets and encouraging your vice-president, ministers, leadership of the National Assembly and state governors, as well as the chairmen of local governments, to do the same,” SERAP told Tinubu.
