Immediate-past President Muhammadu Buhari has submitted his assets declaration form and the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) on Saturday acknowledged receipt of the form.
Senior Special Adviser to the former President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, made this known on Saturday, sharing a a tweet containing a photo of the acknowledgement slip from the CCB.
In this tweet, Shehu said that the former president’s action is line with Chapter 6 of the constitution.
The acknowledgement slip was signed by the Chairman of the CCB, Isah Mohammed, and was dated May 31.
Shehu said, “The completed declaration shows that his movable assets did not increase, at home in Nigeria or outside and did not add new bank accounts outside the only one he had in Union Bank, Kaduna. He has taken no loans and has no liability.
“The number of animals in his farm recorded a little decrease due to the number he gave out as gifts in the last four years.”
Buhari reportedly obtained copies of his assets declaration form on May 26, three days before he handed over to President Bola Tinubu.
The CCB had charged all outgoing and newly-elected public officials to submit their assets declaration forms by May 29, after which verification of the assets would commence.
