It is important to state that running or managing a private company full-time. At the same time, you are employed fully by the Federal Government of Nigeria goes against the Code of Conduct Bureau for public office holders, which forbids a civil servant or public servant from participating in or running a company’s management in the country. However, the law allows public officeholders or civil servants to participate in farming.
