Now that Reno has denied it, i'm a 100% percent convinced it must be from the Government.


PS: I don't think an individual would/can use the Nigerian coat of arms on a private product.

I dont have time for endless emotional arguements. Lets deal with the FACTS.

The centenary celebration is FG initiated BUT it is purely private sector driven and govt will not be spending a kobo on the celebration. Pius Anyim, while briefing the house of reps committee on the proposed centenary celebration, said "Nigeria’s planned centenary celebration will be wholesomely funded by the private sector, and will receive no government “kobo”

Pataki:

Oh really?? Do you people just have a penchant for ignorance or you just rather enjoy spewing lies like agent lucifer?

Who are the several clients that will identify with corrupt politicians to promote their brand?

Are you lot oblivious to how these associations with corrupt Nigerians affect their international transparency ratings globally?
Are you living in a rabbit hole, every body knows that these guys waste money and gifting is becoming popular in Nigeria as it is already in the United States. When did Corporations start giving a damn about the masses they are in business to sell products think correctly, if you read my past post carefully you will see I have no political allegiance because they are ALL THIEVES so please go and quote somebody else.

1. That Nigerian Government is a sincere one?
2.That the PDP is an honest corruption free party like the Nigerian Government?
3. That the House of Reps isn't spending this country into Bankruptcy?
4. That you are not a PDP stooge?

awodman:
STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE

We consider the reports in a section of the media claiming
that the Nigerian government had ordered customized gold iPhones from a Dubai-based company to mark the
country’s 53rd independence anniversary in October not
only false and misleading, but utterly mischievous.

It is instructive that despite the refutation of the story by
the company, which ought to have laid the mischief to rest,a number of politically-minded news media continue to insist on promoting the blatant falsehood. We deplore their antics as yet another attempt to use any trick or means possible to discredit President Jonathan’s well-meaning, hardworking and focused administration.

It is certainly a matter of public record and knowledge that since his assumption of office, President Jonathan has ensured that October 1independence-day anniversaries are low-key, without any pomp or pageantry. Ironically, even this prudence generated criticisms from a cynical and opportunistic segment of the public which alleged, in 2011, and again in 2012, that the President was either too scared to celebrate or that the government was broke.

This administration has no intention to depart from its
established habit of prudent management of resources and modest celebration of the country’s independence
anniversary. This year, the public should be assured that
theOctober 1 anniversary will also be low-keyed. Neither
the Federal Government nor its agencies has ordered any
gold iPhones to mark the anniversary.

We do not see any justification for such extravagance
either now or at any other time. The Jonathan
administration’s gold standard is to continue to provide
responsible, committed, and result-oriented leadership, not to engage in the purchase and distribution of party gifts.

We urge the Dubai-based company, which has since said
that the order for the said 53 gold i-phones was placed by a private individual and not the Nigerian Government, to go ahead and disclose the identity of that individual.

We appeal to the public to beware of the increasing
desperation of those with politically vested interests,
seeking to pull down this administration. Their moral
bankruptcy is condemnable.

The Jonathan administration will remain focused as it
continues to serve the Nigerian people diligently.
