I’ve Declared My Assets According To Law – Wike by midolian(m): 6:07pm On Sep 09, 2015
RIVERS State Governor, Chief Nyesom Wike, said on Wednesday that he had declared his assets to the relevant authority according to the law.

Wike explained that he had by his action, fulfilled the country’s constitutional requirement, adding that declaring his assets publicly was not part of the dictates of the law.

The governor, who spoke through his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Sir Opunabo Inko-Tariah, pointed out that it was necessary for people to de-emphasise asset declaration, but the sincerity behind such exercise.

He stated that some public office holders could over-declare their assets to pave the way for them to steal public funds in future while others, who had held public offices in the past, might under-declare their personal belongings in order to give the impression that they were never involved in corrupt practices while in office.

Wike explained that the most important thing for public office holders was to deliver the dividends of democracy, adding that his main interest was to develop the state and the people.

“The governor has declared his assets and this is exactly what he told newsmen during the tour of his administration’s projects. There is no law compelling him to make his declaration public. He has declared his assets and the declaration was made to the relevant authority.

“Let me also say that it is not just about asset declaration; it has to do with the sincerity of the person because some may over-declare when they want to steal in future. So, they declare to accommodate the theft in future.

“Some may also declare for whatever reason; maybe they have held public offices in the past and they don’t want people to know that they have stolen money. So, people will declare; it is not all about the declaration of assets.

“What is crucial is the sincerity of the person declaring and you are supposed to declare when you get out of office. But the truth is that if you are a governor or a minister, what matters is the delivery of the dividends of democracy. That is what is important and it is not about what you declare and how much you declare,” Wike added.

On the claim by the All Progressives Congress in the state that most of the projects completed by his administration were started by the immediate past governor, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, he said it was wrong for anybody to personalise governance.

According to the governor, projects that will impact on the lives of the people should not be abandoned by any successor.

Hypocrite set of people, when Buhari declare it with CCB , they call for his head, Buhari made it public, they claim it was more than that as if they were their when Buhari was acquiring it. They have forgotten that an Ex Presi "did not give a damn" about asset declaration. Any elected officials that has no skeleton in his/her cupboard would declare it without fear.
GOD BLESS PMB

Want to see Wike's asset declaration paper work, invoke the FOIA and do the needful. For the Dullard from Duara supporters seeking solace here, remember your almajiri 419 leader made a campaign promise. People called him on that promise, you people don't have a leg to stand on here.

what else do you want MizMyColi? When it was yet to be made public, you cried until it was made public. Now it is made public, you are still wailing.

Wike submitted his form to the bureau just as buhari initially did when you hastily criticized him, but all you have to say about wike now is "Well done"..even when its clear to all that this man isn't going to make his public..you people sef! SMH cheesy

Confuse ? Not me but you how do you expect him to declare ? May be you want Buhari to come on national tv and start declaring it out. Or you want Buhari to declare more than #30m . Have you forgooten that Garba Sheu has declared it on behalf of Buhari ?
If you/pdp are not satisfy with Buhari asset declaration then wait till CCB makes it public once more just like Garba Sheu did.
Lest i forget, tell Fayose that he should name where those Buhari asset his hidden.

Did Wike Promise anyone that he will make his declaration public?
Nigerians were on their own jejely when we saw someone who said he will do his own publicly? What did you expect before?

Even you Buhari followers know that he can do better than that kindergaten writeup which you lot bandy around and call asset declaration, but you won't admit that because in your thinkings, half loaf is better than puff puff.

Buhari is even more outspoken on his anti-corruption drive than Yaradua, yet, Yaradua declared and was very detailed about it. He even declared that of his wife and household according to CCB guidelines.
Mr Buhari on the other hand was very economical and partial with the truth.

Smh.
You guys still don't get it do you?

When you want to take actions like this, you do so in such a way that will leave everyone dumbfounded. You make detailed specifics to the extent that those who oppose you will start complaining that it is too much.
You don't leave room for holes to be picked.

But the reverse, as we have seen thus far, is the case.
