The Federal Government on Friday dismissed as untrue claims that President Muhammadu Buhari donated $500m to Hillary Clinton campaign in the just-concluded US election. A video, purportedly circulated by a US non-governmental group, the American BlackGroup for Democracy, had last week alleged that Nigeria donated $500m (about N150bn) to Clinton’s failed bid for the White House. It claimed that the money was “pledged to the US Secretary of State, Sen John Kerry, and US Ambassador in Abuja”; adding that “the donation may create a huge misunderstanding between Nigeria and the incoming Trump’s US government. ”But in a reaction on Friday, the Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to the President, Mr. Garba Shehu, described the accusations as crazy, insisting that “Nigeria doesn’t have this kind of money to throw around.“What is the craziest accusation made against President Buhari?” Shehu posted on his Twitter handle, @GarShehu.“That he donated $500m to Hillary’s campaign and that Donald Trump is angry. This has gone viral, sadly Nigerians are believing it!“President Buhari’s Nigeria doesn’t have this kind of money to throw around. Even if the money is there, this President is the least likely person to give it as donation, and for what?”Mr. Shehu noted that President Buhari is in discussion with the US government to repatriate loots stashed in American banks. He said, “A FGN account has already been given for the return of one million dollars from Alamieyesiegha. “Judgement on the $480m Abacha loot has been won and our Attorney-General, Malami (SAN) will be in the US next week to speak to the Department of Justice on the next steps for the return of that as well. “The US is paying to Nigeria, not the other way round.”

Lies Too?

Then why were you at the climate change programme in Morocco. Why were you riding shotgun with Amina Mohammed, in a convention for environmentalists. Why were you at a private meeting with John Kerry.

You are a liar and a buffoon. After using our national coffers to play alawi, and losing like a phool, you now want a refund. May lightning strike you and your kardashian family

As if we expect them to admit it

OK una no donate $500mill


How much una donate because we knew Kerry came to nigeria to collect money for Clinton campaign and Obama's retirement fund

Would have been better if this contrivance was made to die naturally because we never expect admittance of sponsoring the clinton failed campaign. What do this govt. Take us for
