According to the Bureau, the president-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu; the vice president-elect, Kashim Shettima and 28 incoming governors must declare their assets.
It added that this must be done before May 29.
Other officials, including senators-elect and Reps-elect, are expected to declare their assets before June 5 when they would be sworn in.
Politics Nigeria reports that this was disclosed by the CCB spokesperson, Mrs Veronica Kato.
She said that according to the law, asset declaration was an integral part of the swearing-in ceremony.
Going further, she disclosed that several elected officials had started picking their assets declaration forms at the CCB state offices nationwide and that they were expected to submit the filled copies to the bureau before the inauguration day.
