Why The List Of Rich Nigerian Politicians Is Imaginary by Crystal70200: 4:03pm On Jun 13, 2016
A list which was said to be that of the richest Nigerian politicians allegedly published of the American Federal Bureau of Investigation, the FBI, has been making rounds online.

The names listed in the reports include: ex-president Olusegun Obasanjo, former Lagos state Governor, Bola Tinubu, former vice president Atiku Abubakar, former military head of state Ibrahim Babangida, former INEC chairman Attahiru Jega, Maina, Oransanye, Lamido, Talba, Alamyeisegha and Adamu Muazu.
However, investigations show that the picture is fake.

Below are five reasons why this report cannot be true:
1. If it is real, then where are the logos, dates of release and reference numbers?

2. Ally financial /Detroit is written in different font (compare with the rest of the ‘document’, other lines).

3. A dot after names and names of banks, and politicians. It makes no sense.

4. Huge number of errors: Citi group / new York – two errors, the official name is Citigroup, New York (two letters should be capital). Do you believe the FBI posts document with such huge number of typos?! The photo can be created by every person who has a computer and MS Excel, or similar software.

5. A publication refers to Amanpour Live show on CNN. The problem is, the video version of this show is nowhere to be found online. The conclusion is obvious, such video simply does not exist.
