Re: Governors Of 19 Nigerian States Under Buhari - Most Are Millionaires Now. by MaiSuya(m): 2:58pm On Mar 25, 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

Wow! this is very good work.
Re: Governors Of 19 Nigerian States Under Buhari - Most Are Millionaires Now. by seguno2: 3:04pm On Mar 25, 2011
All those saying Buhari has integrity and is not corrupt should please tell us where the man got the N100 million per day (according to Pat Utomi) that presidential candidates spend for his three campaigns- 2003, 2007 and 2011.
I am sure it is not based on his salary as a military officer and former head of state plus pension.
Where did he get the money to take his case to the Supreme Court and pay all the SAN lawyers?
Those who want to be fooled by his cool demeanour can remain so. However I advise you that it is time to shine your eyes well well.

Re: Governors Of 19 Nigerian States Under Buhari - Most Are Millionaires Now. by Iveanyi: 3:24pm On Mar 25, 2011
What kind of baseless, sensationalist topic is this? What the hell has Buhari got to do with the wealth of any soldier who happened to be a Governor in his regime. Buhari was Head of State for barely 20 months and left the Nigerian Army immediately after Babangida took over. Most of these people went on to serve in other capacities long after this.
Before making such an inane post, was there any effort at finding out what percetage of their wealth was acquired during their spell as governor between January 1984 and August 1985?
Case in point: If for instance David Mark acquires any wealth as Senate President the next thing I'll hear is that he was a governor under Buhari.
Please I implore you; Always remember that Nairaland posts are read all over the world and the kind of reasoning that people read are a pointer to the way Nigerians think. I would not like anyone anywhere in the world not to take me seriously because he has a prejudice based on a post he read on Nairaland.

They're all corrupt if you most know but, we're talking about who's best to govern amongst them. My major problem with Buhari is the statement he was allegedly to have about Sharia Court. It doesn't sound like someone who's accommodating to me. If this statements attributed to him's wrong, pls help correct it

@seguno 2

Are you very sure you were well grounded on Comprehension in English Language because you do not seem to come as one with the kind of comments of yours above, You better find study materials on How to Comprehend without problems after reading so you don't make post like these on forums in future,
I suggest you go back to re-read the article where Prof. Pat Utomi made such claim before you mis-inform those who look up to and live around you,

Garbage. Pure nonsense. I mean you gotto cite your reference. Seems like the information was just assumed. Not facts at all. Prove me wrong by citing your reference/s. By the way being a Nigerians millionaire is not a big deal. 10 million naira makes you a millionaire. Now the same 10 million naira is less than 65 thousand USD.

I hope you will be kind enough to help me out with my understanding.

My Bro Pat Utomi was referring to GEJ on the 100 million per day campaign not Buhari,

Re: Governors Of 19 Nigerian States Under Buhari - Most Are Millionaires Now. by okadaman2: 4:53pm On Mar 25, 2011
@ Segun02 , So because PDP Government gave you contract, you think it's ok to cheat other Nigerians? Who is a bully and Brute between GEJ and the opposition?

Who asked IGP to threaten Nigerians from bringing their phones blackberry to Polling stations? PDP

Who controlled NTA to reject Campaign adverts because it does not favor PDP? GEJ

Who is celebrating Thugs, thieves and Convicted criminals like Bode George and Alamieysegha? GEJ

Who are the Brutes and bullies ? which institution did GEJ build? Information institution with NTA? or road institution with Benin-Ore road and Anenih(former minister of works) GEJ campaign director?

compare to Buhari who built Refineries and Institutionalized Disciplined and Crime fighting when he was there or Ribadu who built EFCC When Goodluck Ebele Jonathan was busy Looting Bayelsa State with his Master Alamieseghya.

Return PDP's blood money and save your family and generation from coming curse and judgment, Nigerians are dieing from misrule and you are supporting their killers? You? are your families not Nigerians too?

So, why are you blaming OBJ for Bode George, blaming OBJ for Ibori, blaming OBJ for every corrupt person who has been in government under him. Why are you blaming GEJ for Ibori, why are you blaming him for the PDP Governors, why are you blaming GEJ for those under him who you see as corrupt. Come on. Use your mucus brain for once instead of leaving it in the toilet.

So, you better start prepare to leave Nigeria to any neighboring countries where corruption will continue to be practiced. CORRUPTION must be eliminated from NIGERIA!

With posters like the OP, it is no surprise that corruption reigns supreme in Nigeria.Their desperation to discredit the general excises all forms of brain matter when they hear his name. The come salivating, frothing from the mouth spewing all kinds of brainless accusations.

you forgot to add their brazen manipulation of the judiciary through their hatchet men to ensure that election petitions now end in the supreme court and not the Appeal.

What we need to know is the age of the poster when Buhari ruled and if he was too young by then because age is just a number where did he and his cohorts get their information from. As for the other guy that said he ruled for three years. He barely ruled for 2 years so where did he get his figures from. Aisha please save us some space delete this thread.
