$1.5m Dubai Mansions: CCB Clears Buratai by Marlboro1: 5:00am On Jul 15, 2016
The Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) has absolved the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Tukur Buratai of any infraction of the laws over the purchase of two houses in Dubai, United Emirate, worth $1.5 million.
Buratai had been in the eyes of the storm with individuals, right activists and civil society groups calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to relieve him of his appointment. But the Federal Government had defended him saying he did not contravene any law.
Following the clearance by the Federal Government, CCB in a reply to a request by an Abuja-based lawyer, Ugochukwu Osuagwu, also stated that the Army Chief did not err as he disclosed he Dubai properties in his Assets Form.
Osuagwu had demanded for information on the contents of the Assets Form of the Army chief, pursuant to section 1 and 4 of the Freedom of Information Act 2011.

The bureau responded through a letter dated July 11, 2016 with Refine. CCB/HQ/671/G/1/6 and signed by Mrs. Ijeanuli Arinze Ofor on behalf of the CCB chairman.

The letter reads in parts: “We wish to state herein that General Tukur Buratai after his appointment as the Chief of Army Staff, declared these assets as required by the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“He was served the form CCB on 21th July, 2015 and returned same on 21st August, 2015.

“We also wish to confirm that his property at Dubai was declared in the wife’s name.”

The clearance handed Buratai on the Dubai mansions by the Federal Government had been criticized and described as hasty. The critics claimed no investigation was conducted by relevant agencies in the anti-corruption crusade.

Buratai defended the purchase, saying that he purchased the properties through savings.

The question is not whether buratai declared those assets before CCB.The issue is that as a public official,his salary cannot afford those expensive properties he acquires.If it wasn't because sen bukola saraki disobeyed tinubu,CCB would not have been disturbing him.There are more of saraki that CCB is shielding until they offend their masters before they will be expose.They are also bribe takers.

CCB or CBT or whatever the call them, the bone of contention is not about declaring the said property but how did he afford it with the salary he makes.



Remember Fayose declared sum property in the form but EFCC is saying he declared it b4 he bought it, classic case of CORRUPTION



How can Buraitai be living a champagne life on Beer income thatx the contention!!

Well, I guess people have a short memory, are they aware that one of Saraki's properties in contention with the CCB was declared in his wife's name. People aren't aware that law follows precedence. If it is was declared in his wife's name, that's the more reason he should be investigated. But with what's going on, I think this man is been shielded.

Let proper investigation be done as to how his savings as a military man can save enough to buy a house in Dubai.

If it is true then I think his investment capabilities are impeccable and out of this world.

Buhari must not hesitate to make him our finance minister ASAP.
