No matter how much you fight corruption, you can NEVER achieve 100% success.

@Enugu_Ukwu

Dude I must applaud you for being cleverly deceptive.  Many of these people did not become millionaires while Buhari was in office.  They became millionaires after Buhari left office i.e. under the regimes of Abacha, Babangida etc.  The names you mentioned are of people who remained in government long after Buhari was Head of State.  Still I must applaud you for your clever attempt.

@OP, U don't have to go this far in your propaganda.
none of these guys u mentioned retired with Buhari.

A good number of them went ahead to become at least a Major General.
Re: Governors Of 19 Nigerian States Under Buhari - Most Are Millionaires Now. by EnuguUkwu: 8:33pm On Mar 23, 2011
yeah, it wasnt under Buhari, it was after.

Buhari must have recruited these guys from heaven. Nigerians. Think before you talk, dont talk because of politics. So suddenly, these guys are no more corrupt because they served under Buhari, but became corrupt because they served under Babangida and Abacha.

Anyway, even Buhari said no kobo of Nigeria is in Abacha's pocket.

@OP,

Try and be reasonable for a momemt.

You are saying they are millionaires

WHy wont Jerry Useni FCT minister under Abacha, Oladipo Diya VP under Abacha, David mark current Senate President be millionaires

No one said they were millionaires, But Buhari curbed their corrupt tendencies while in Govt. It was after Buhari left before those that stole were able to steal anything.

The simple fact is all of those guys, just like Buhari, were political soldiers. Like Buhari, they were involved in all military coups, and held political positions in all govts , including Gowon's govt, Murtala's govt, IBB's govt, Abacha's govt etc from after their 1966 coup. Its a band of crooked brothers, no better than kidnappers and armed robbers.

The task at hand is, Buhari and his gang were career politians and opportunists in uniform who are no better armed robber and kidnappers that should be in jail for treason. They have all made dirty money and Buhari thinks it is time to steal again.

@poster,
sometimes when you post this your anti Buhari desperate sentiments, thinking that your readers are nursery school kids.
Buhari wasn't the architect of the 1984 coup but was made the head of  state because of seniority according the experts. Some even said that they pencilled down Bako who was killed during the coup at Doda Barrack as the possible head of state.

And then you often forgot that there was an institution i the junta govt called the Supreme military council where everyting is decided, while Buhari/Idiagbon was the arrow head of the government.

Most of the people you mentioned remained in government well after Buhari left power. Madueke for instance was later to become the governor of Imo state for a couple of years when he initiated the building of the present Sam Mbakwe airport Owerri. Also John Atom Kpera later governed the old Anambra state too.

A good analyst would have give us a blow by blow account of this men you mentioned that are now millionaires, as to what they are doing now and the position they now occupy to justify your bogus claim. I haven't heard the name of some these characters for donkey years now, probably, most of them are .
How can any sane person for instance justify what David Mark BECOMES to the making of Buhari. How many of those guy are today juping around his campaign for making them millionaire?

Re: Governors Of 19 Nigerian States Under Buhari - Most Are Millionaires Now. by Nobody: 12:34pm On Mar 24, 2011
Now the debate is getting ridiculous. After spending millions to 'demystify' Buhari's incorruptibility, this is how low anti-Buhari elements have sunk. Digging out baseless fictions, all to put 'corruption' and Buhari in same sentence. Na wa o.

But it is another failed attempt.

First, most of these guys, like somebody mentioned up there, did not retire with Buhari. They went further to become Major Generals, AVM, Admirals etc, some held various other positions subsequently, some even became members of IBB's AFRC, Abacha's PRC etc later.

Now, let me take the ones I know quite much about one by one.
Anambra
Allison Madueke - was still in army till 1994, 9 years post-Buhari, went on become CNS under Abacha, sacked for backing MKO's release. How then was his 1.5 years as Buhari's governor responsible for his wealth, even he has?

Bauchi
Mohammed Sani Sami - Was still in army till 1990, 5 years into IBB's regime, later became emir. Not known for stupendous wealth.

Bendel
Jeremiah Useni - If he stole, definitely it is more logical to attribute it to his Abacha days as FCT minister and 4th highest ranking soldier, than his stint as governor under Buhari.

Benue
John Kpera - He was governor for 2 years under Obj's militray government. Retired with Buhari. Not known to be extremely wealthy than an average General.

Borno
Abubakar Waziri - when last did u hear his name? Btw, was governor under Obj too.

Cross River
Dan Archibong - Died in 1990. Yet Op is saying he is a millionaire now. Do you know where his wealth is? n

Gongola
Mohammed Jega - Now an emir. Know little about him or his wealth.

Imo
Ike Nwachukwu - Highest ranking igbo officer post Biafra. Not known to be richer than an average general

Kaduna
Usman Mu'azu - This one is a family friend. He has been Chairman of a number of companies since retirement and you don't expect a company Chairman to be poor.

Kano
Hamza Abdullahi - was governor and later minister under IBB too. So what proof is there to show he enriched himself under Buhari, that is eveven if he

Kwara
Salaudeen Latinwo - I know this one personally. Same alma mater(secondary school), same town. A strict disciplarian like Buhari himself. His house is as modest as little Jarus' own. He will not rank among the Top 50 richest men in my community.

Lagos
Gbolahan Mudasiru - Died almost wretched. I know his children. His son, now DMD of a popular investment company, struggled on his own to get to where he is today. In fact his monthly pay when he was in his former company before joining friends to establish their own company, was less than 250k per month. And that was as recently as 2003, even when his father was still alive. Only few ex-governors' children has this kind of tale.

Niger
David Mark - he has been in government since 70s, before and after Buhari. So saying he made his wealth during Buhari's 1.5 years government can only be as laughable as it comes.

Ogun
Oladipo Diya - Became No 2 to Nigeria's most corrupt Head of State ever. Nuff said, if he is truly wealthy. But nothing in his lifestyle has shown he is stupendously rich.

Ondo
Michael Bamidele Otiko

Oyo
Oladayo Popoola - Went on to become Major General under IBB. Now dead. Was governor under IBB too.

Plateau
Samuel Atukum - Can't even remember ever coming across this name.

Rivers
Fidelis Oyakhilome - Gone into obscurity long time ago. Nfar from being known for wealth.

Sokoto
Garba Duba - Not known to be extremely rich

Back to the topic.

Are we saying once in the history of Nigeria. 19 governors never took a dime of government money into their pockets to enrich themselves thru inflated contracts etc?

This is as alarming as it can be. Buhari - i love you. For once been able to put it on record that during your reign, no single member of your government enriched themselves illegally?

I love Nigeria.
