President Muhammadu Buhari never said he would declare his assets publicly, his party the All Progressives Congress, APC did, says Presidential Spokesman, Mr Femi Adesina.

Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari had promised to declare his assets alongside his Vice-President Yemi Osibanjo but shortly after the polls and swearing-in, the President has refused to do so publicly, being the first promise he has failed to keep.

In an exclusive interview with Mr Kayode Ogundamisi, the appointment of Public officials is the prerogative of President Buhari and Nigerians trusted him with a mandate & he promised September..

Femi Adesina, special adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on media and publicity, says the president never promised to make his assets public.

Adesina said the issue of assets publishing cannot be credited to Buhari but the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

He said Buhari has declared his assets in compliance with the law and may decide to make them public when verification is concluded by the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB).

He was speaking in an interview with Kayode Ogundamisi, a social commentator.

“You need to get his words right, go and check all that the president said during the campaign, in no place would you see it attributed to him as a person,” Adesina said.

“But then there is a document by his party, the All Progressives Congress, saying he would declare publicly, so we need to set that right, it’s a declaration by his party.

“Now what does the law require? The law requires public officers to declare their assets; he has done that. But his party has a document that says he would do it publicly.

“There is a procedure for that, and the procedure is that you first declare, code of conduct (bureau) would verify and after that, if you want to make it public, the onus lies on you to say release. The procedure has to be followed.”

The presidential spokesman went on to say the decision to release or not release the asset for public consumption would be taken by the president when verification is done.

“He has declared, and it is deposited with the code of conduct bureau and they need to verify. Let’s come to that time when code of conduct would say we have completed verification.”

When contacted, Adesina said he had nothing to add to what he said in the interview.

“You already heard what I said, I have nothing to add,” he told TheCable. Nigerians have been mounting pressure on the president to publish the details of his assets.

‎It is a Shame that we have people who clearly know the truth but malevolently strive to shove lies down our throat 

For The benefits of those who do not know here are the exact words of Gen Buhari 



“I pledge to publicly declare my assets and liabilities, encourage all my appointees to publicity declare their assets and liabilities as a pre-condition for appointment"



https://www.naij.com/388617-buhari-promises-to-publicly-declare-assets-if-elected.html

The "I" There stands for Singular when did the party become a person?

The word "pledge" used here  is stronger than the word "Promise" although I am not an authority in english .


He also promised to get his appointees to do same as a PRE- condition for appointments! 

We are yet to see the Asset Declaration of the following people 

1. Lawan Daura  DG SSS and Acting EFCC chairman 

2. Adeshina himself and Garba Shehu 

3. GMD NNPC, NIMASA MD, and a host of other appointments made.

Like Fayose said Buhari's Government makes so much noise without substance, informing  Armed robbers you are coming is simply telling them with me you will always have a head start ,so flee !

Buhari has no moral justification to alleniate himself from the party that gave him the ticket! 

They made the promise, Millions voted on The basis of those promises , they got what they wanted Now Nigerians must get what they were promised!!!!

May God Continue to Bless Nigeria and Nigerians

Sweetjeart, a®e you surprised? Buhari has been p*ssy-footing over this subject. That man isn't clean. I've been crying since day 1 that Buhari isn't interested in transparent leadership. But we shall continue to hold him accountable!

We ain't seeing anything at all ..NOTHING!

APC is different from Buhari - Adesina

Anyone thinking PMB will declare his assets or fulfil any of his promises is simply insane and needs a psych evaluation. That is why GEJ remains the man to beat. He never promised something as stupid as this. He always told us the truth no matter how bitter it tasted. Unlike PMB who was so desperate to sit in Aso rock that he told lies taller than a palm tree. Well he may think he has gotten away with it, but he should know the honeymoon will soon be over. By March, three months after his ridiculous deadline, he will receive hell on earth and will learn why it is stupid to think you can fool a angry, hungry population
