President Bola Tinubu has announced the nomination of three new members to fill existing vacancies on the board of the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB).
The announcement was made in a formal letter addressed to the Senate President, as stated by Bayo Onanuga, the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy.
The nominated individuals are Alhaji Fatai Ibikunle from Oyo State, Kennedy Ikpeme from Cross River, and Justice Ibrahim Buba, a retired judge of the Federal High Court. The appointment of these new members is aimed at enhancing oversight mechanisms within the Bureau.
The Code of Conduct Bureau, established in 1979, plays a vital role in maintaining integrity within public service and ensuring compliance with the country’s ethical standards. The Bureau operates with a 10-member board, which currently includes Dr. Abdullahi Usman Bello, who was sworn in as the chairman by President Tinubu on October 23, 2024.
Other members of the board are Barr. Muritala Aliyu Kankia, Hon. E. J Agbomayinma, Barr. Ben Umeano, Prof. Juwayriyya Badamasiuy, Mr. Bulus I Zephaniah, and Hon. Abdulsalam Taofiq Olawale.
The nomination of Alhaji Fatai Ibikunle, Kennedy Ikpeme, and Justice Ibrahim Buba is expected to strengthen the Bureau’s capacity to carry out its mandate effectively. The Senate will now consider the nominees for confirmation, as part of the constitutional process for appointing members to the Code of Conduct Bureau board.
