Professional ethics is the professional behavior and characteristics that identify professional accountants as members of profession.

The null hypothesis stated in this research work was tested using the chi-square method of testing.

From the study, the test of the hypothesis revealed that null hypothesis was accepted and the 1 alternate hypothesis rejected. One of the recommendations made in the research work was that seminars and workshop should be organized regularly by the professional bodies in Nigeria [i.e. ICAN and ANAN] to enlighten professional members and the public on the importance of professional ethics and conducts established by the professional bodies. These seminars and workshop should be sponsored by the government.
