Is a public officer under a duty to declare his/her asset?
Under the current law, the only officials required by law to declare their assets are officials serving in Local Government Councils. The new Act will make provision for the declaration of assets of all public officials. Asset declaration is an essential preventive tool in deterring the illegal acquisition of wealth by public officials and as such holders of public offices are now been required to declare their assets.
