These nominations are expected to bring fresh perspectives to the Bureau, which is responsible for promoting accountability and integrity within public service.

The Code of Conduct Bureau operates with a 10-member board. Dr. Abdullahi Usman Bello, the current chairman, was sworn in by President Tinubu on October 23, 2024. Other members of the board include:

Barr. Muritala Aliyu Kankia
Hon. E. J. Agbomayinma
Barr. Ben Umeano
Prof. Juwayriyya Badamasiuy
Mr. Bulus I. Zephaniah
Hon. Abdulsalam Taofiq Olawale

Established in 1979, the Bureau ensures compliance with ethical standards and accountability in governance. It monitors the declaration of assets by public officials and enforces the rules guiding their conduct.

The Senate’s confirmation of these nominees will further strengthen the Bureau’s ability to carry out its mandate.
