Bought this 12 yr old uke and plan to change the strings. When I have the strings off, I would to clean the fret board. Any recommendations on cleaner,oil etc? Also, not sure if the nut needs to be replaced? Thanks.

I would probably scrape off the grime with a credit card or something that won't damage the surface, then use a clean cotton cloth and a little soap and water. Then reconditioned and feed the wood with some lemon oil. But I am no expert

I use Scrubbing bubbles and a toothbrush and wipe with paper cloth...be sure not to get it on the finish...then apply your finish oil if you want..

I wouldn't touch it. The patina looks great and adds to the great looks of the ukulele. I would only do what is necessary, if anything needs to be done to make it play well.
I wouldn't worry about it if it isn't "sticky." I personally like the Loprinzi Fingerboard Conditioner
