SERAP sues CCB over ‘failure to probe abuse of office in electoral act amendment, tax reform laws’

The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has filed a lawsuit against the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) for its ‘failure to investigate allegations that certain lawmakers improperly removed key sections on electronic transmission of election results’. SERAP is seeking a Federal High Court order in Abuja to compel the CCB to probe these allegations and unlawful alterations to tax reform laws. The organization argues that these actions violate the Code of Conduct for Public Officers and undermine public trust.
