The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has called on all 19 presidential candidates announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to declare their assets and liabilities ahead of the 2027 presidential election. In an open letter, SERAP also urged the candidates to disclose the assets and liabilities of their spouses and, where applicable, their unmarried children under 18, as well as the legitimate sources of their significant wealth.

The organization further urged the candidates to publicly reject vote-buying and electoral bribery. SERAP emphasized the importance of transparency, accountability, and integrity in the upcoming election, stating that the candidates should demonstrate their personal financial affairs can withstand reasonable public scrutiny.
