Assets: CCB Threatens To Go After Political Office Holders

The Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) in Kano State has reminded all outgoing elected and appointed political office holders to declare their assets at the end of their tenure.

This was contained in a statement signed by the CCB state Director, Umar Saulawa, and made available to News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Kano on Saturday.

He said there was the need for the affected political office holders to declare their assets in line with provisions of the 1999 constitution as amended.

“We want to remind all the outgoing elected and appointed political office holders in the state to come forward to the Bureau’s office to collect their assets declaration form,” he said.

He warned that failure to comply with the directive amounts to a breach of the law and attracts necessary sanctions against defaulting public officers.
