Every well established profession must have a code of ethics to guide the conduct of its members. In other words, for every well established association, to progress in its activities they must have some laid down rules and regulations. These rules and regulations act as norms which guide the moral conduct, duty and judgment that guide members in their dealings with one another, members and the general public they serve. According to Ifelunni (2017), every association to be able to progress in its daily activities, have some laid down norms which guide members in their dealings with one another and members and the general public they serve. In doing this, Ifelunni maintained that, the counsellor respects the integrity and promotes the welfare of his client. Ethics are therefore the yardstick upon which members, conduct or behaviours are adjudge as good (ethical) or bad (unethical) (Ifelunni, 2017).
