The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has urged President Bola Tinubu to “use the anniversary of your first year in office as an opportunity to demonstrate your oft-expressed commitment to democracy, accountability, and openness in government by immediately publishing your asset declaration form.”
SERAP urged him to encourage Vice-President Kashim Shettima, ministers, and state governors to also widely publish their asset declaration forms.
The rights group also urged the President to urgently propose a constitutional amendment to include provisions on the creation of asset declaration database to publish government officials’ asset declaration forms before, during, and after serving in public office.
In the open letter dated 25 May 2024 and signed by SERAP’s deputy director, Kolawole Oluwadare, the organisation said: “Widely publishing your asset declaration form and encouraging your Vice-President, ministers, and state governors to also widely publish their assets would serve legitimate public interests.” END QUOTE.
