Chairman of the CCB, Mr. Sam Sada, who spoke exclusively to Vanguard through his Special Assistant, Mr. Gwimi Sebastian Peter, said only the National Assembly is vested with the powers to decide the terms and conditions under which such documents could be made public.
The chairman said even though the Constitution of Nigerian made it clear that the agency should make available to the citizens the assets declared by public officials, the same law vested the National Assembly with the power to decide the terms and conditions for making such materials public.
Sada explained that the CCB was ready to comply with the terms and conditions specified by the National Assembly on the matter but would only do so once the law was amended. He said:
“While the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (1999) and the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act give the bureau powers to receive assets declarations, verify, examine, keep in custody and enforce compliance when there is a breach, the responsibility of determining how and on what terms asset declarations will be made accessible to the public was left to the National Assembly. “Several National Assemblies have come and gone since the establishment of the CCB without addressing the matter.”Source: Vanguard

ReplyDeleteWho is deceiving us now? Buhari or CCB?
ReplyDeleteOk,,,,, we go see the change na
ReplyDeleteThat's how the stories start. Two things: (1)Do you mean to tell me that Buhari and Osinbajo (who is a Senior Advocate of Nigeria) were not aware of this provision before making the promise to disclose their assets?. (2)Assuming they are aware, why will they deceive the public into thinking they are so upright and that they will ensure this process is carried out, i.e their promise on disclosing their asset, and make people vote for them as a result?
ReplyDeleteI hope this administration does not keep coming up with loopholes to avoid fulfillment of their promises as time goes by.

ReplyDeletestory for the gods
ReplyDeleteCorrupt Buhari and his hypocritic vice. They may deceive some naive Nigerians that voted them into power,but not all Nigerians can be deceived. They want to loot that is why they are against making their asset public. Buhari is back to steal, no change at all. If Buhari is back to fight corruption, he wouldn't have ordered for the withdrawal of the corruption charge against Timipri Silver the drug addict. APC is a party of deception.

ReplyDeletePDP people are so stupid and senseless. First u contested his certificate, the certificate came out, second u said he is sick, u had no proof. 3rd u said he did not declare asset publicly, they said go to the bureau or national assembly and demand 4 it. They will definately show u according to the constitution. All your efforts to bring him down has proved abortive. Cant u see that God himself is with Buhari?. Just because he did not allow u steal money and do corruption in his government, u hate him. Give up foolish fraustrated PDP corrupt idiots!
