President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo have declared their assets, as required by the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The Head, President Muhammadu Buhari Media Team, Garba Shehu in a statement said, the Code of
Conduct Bureau on Friday acknowledged. Buhari’s and Osinbajo’s assets declaration forms submitted separately on May 28, and signed for by the organisation’s Chairman, Sam Saba. President Buhari’s
Declarant ID was given as: ‘President: 000001/2015.’The Nigerian Constitution states in Chapter VI Section
140, that a person elected to the office of President shall not begin to perform the functions of that of office until he has declared his assets and liabilities as prescribed in the Constitution. By declaring their assets, Buhari
and Osinbajo may have not only fulfilled the requirement of the Nigerian Constitution, but also first of their many campaign promises. Buhari it would be recalled had during the 2015 Presidential Campaign promised Nigerians that he would publicly declare his assets as soon as he took over government.
