The Pan-Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere has challenged President Muhammadu Buhari to publicly declare his assests.
Leader of Afenifere, Chief Reuben Fasoranti made the call while reminding Buhari of the promises he made in 2014 that he would declare his assests.
In a letter he personally signed entitled "I pledge to Nigeria"
Fesoranti said: "I pledge to publicly declare my assests and liabilities, encourage all my appointees to publicly declare their assests and liabilities as a pre-condition for appointment.
"It is now four months to the end of the four year tenure of Mr. President and this pledge has not been fulfilled. Instead of doing what he pledged, presidential aides have been giving all manners of untenable excuses in the last three and a half years.
"This is a moral burden as it is said that he who comes to equity must come with clean hands and that examples are better than precepts.
"The jeopardy of President Buhari anti-corruption war has really been one sets of rules for the goose and another set for the gander.
"Afenifere therefore asks the president to immediately make his assests declaration form public so Nigerians can hold him as a man of his words.
"Such a power of example sets greater tone for good conduct in society than a thousand arbitrariness in the name of fighting corruption. The true meaning of leadership is being able to lead by higher standards."
