This event highlights a push for greater transparency and accountability in Nigerian politics, which could lead to improved governance and investor confidence in Nigeria if such ethical standards are widely adopted.

Mohammed Hayatudeen, a presidential aspirant for the Nigeria — African Democratic Congress (ADC), has publicly challenged fellow aspirants, including Atiku Abubakar and Rotimi Amaechi, to commit to the party's newly introduced 'Governance Principles and Code of Ethics', known as 'The Orange Book'.
