I will compel all nominees for political appointment to declare their assets – Buhari



Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, President-Elect
President elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, has recently announced that all candidates seeking for political appointment in his administration will be compelled to declare their assets before taking office and before leaving.

Buhari, who disclosed this in an interview with Sahara TV on Sunday, April 12, said the total disclosure would encourage accountability and reduce corruption in the system.



He said, “All those that were Governors, Ministers, Permanent Secretaries, Head of foreign staff and all those with political appointments will have to declare their assets on the assumption of their appointment and definitely with the courts.

“And once they leave they have to re-declare their assets.”

He asserted that his administration would not “become embroiled in investigation of every ministry, and then not have time to move forward.”
