The Nomination Acceptance Letter is a crucial corporate governance document required under Nigerian law when appointing new directors or officers to a company. This document is mandated by the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) 2020 and must be filed with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC). The letter serves multiple purposes: it formally documents the nominee's acceptance of the position, confirms their eligibility to serve under Nigerian law, acknowledges understanding of duties and responsibilities, and provides necessary declarations for regulatory compliance. The Nomination Acceptance Letter is particularly important as it forms part of the company's official records and may be scrutinized by regulators, shareholders, and other stakeholders. For regulated industries such as banking or insurance, additional specific confirmations may be required in accordance with sector-specific regulations.
