BurataiGate: Wife Of US Governor On $70k Salary Becomes Waitress To Afford $215,000 Home

June 26, 2016

The wife of a US low paid governor has taken to waitressing to help the family afford a new $215,000 home. This breaking story just as the #BurataiGate scandal unfolds in Nigeria with the Chief of Army of Nigeria, Lt. General Tukur Yusuf Buratai recently exposed to have up to a million dollars worth of property in Dubai which he claims he purchased in 2014 with savings on a salary of N700,000 ($3500) /month

One of Buratai’s two homes in Dubai was estimated at $419,800!

Nigerians have been asking how the army chief could have saved in so few years to buy homes abroad of such value. The purchases came during a period when the chief was head of army procurement during he nation’s notorious army gate scandal with billions of dollars diverted.

Fox news reports:

The wife of Maine Republican Gov. Paul LePage had kept a low profile for the first few weeks of her summer job. But then her husband told a crowd at a recent town hall that his wife took a job to “supplement” his $70,000 salary, the lowest of any U.S. governor.

The LePages live with their dog, a Jack Russell terrier mix named Veto, in the Augusta governor’s mansion and bought a $215,000 Boothbay home two years ago. The governor recently tried but failed to increase his successor’s salary to $150,000, above the nearly $135,000 average for all 50 state governors in 2015.

Another military politician. I pray the EFCC will get to investigate this. The fight against corruption should be total and not like what we're seeing whereby political opponents are being persecuted. FFK was injured in his cell yesterday and the presidency is yet to issue a statement concerning that. It's high time the president stopped being a clueless and a sectional leader.

Not surprised apc and buhari supporters will say its only pdp that's corrupt even though more than 90% of the apc members were formerly pdp members.

Now buratai has been fingered and the skeleton in his closet exposed but buhari, apc and their supporters alias zombie won't see this news as a matter of fact I'm betting that they will defend buratai and try to justify the insensitivity of buharis' corruption fighting dogs as well as buhari bias towards the issue. And somehow they think nigeria will move forward.

@OP thanks for the comparison with the US governor. Everyone wants nigeria to get to the level of US but no one wants to do the right thing and to make matters worse the hypocrisy from the so called masses is astronomical. God forbid unforbidable!
Am so ashamed of this country and most times I just wonder how I came to be associated with this cesspool of a country

Thief

Worse than that he is a war criminal whose hands are soaked with the blood of innocent women and children of Zaria.

His beasts went on the rampage at four different locations in Zaria belonging to the IMN on killing spree after His Majesty the Thief ordered the use of live bullets to clear the road of protesters so he could pass. Bloody Criminal in uniform. This is the a$$hole who wants to protect us through killings and stealing. And the sick herdsman from Daura full of wickedness and disease of the heart would either support him or pretend nothing happened.

If you believe that a serving military officer can save and afford two expensive mansions in Dubai, but a former director of SHELL PETROLEUM (Diezani)cannot afford one , then you are one of the problems of Nigeria.

OP this is nothing but smear campaign. And its both silly and disgusting. You are not saying the man stole, but rather that he bought an expensive house. Funds can come from anywhere, and whats moren you dont have to pay the entire sum at once. Once u pay the equity the rest can be spread over decades.

I think its very unfair to be attacking someone who has given so much and laid down his life so that others can sleep at night and have peace. If u dont like buhari thats fine, but please leave our military out of this ok

Oga abeg pype low. Who hasn't given so much! He's not serving the nation free of charge u know, he laid down his life? Sir, he sign that the very day he accepted to join the Army. If you're saying funds can come from any, then Buratai should be reasonable enough to defend his source. The people that revealed this are not strangers to him. They may even be some allies he shared loots with the past. Just simple defence will do. I do so so & so business with my wives over certain period, that's how we got the money to acquire the expensive property. Simple.
