An ongoing investigation by
SaharaReporters into
properties acquired in Dubai
by Chief of Army Staff (COAS)
, General Tukur Buratai, has
revealed more details about
the officer’s real estate
acquisitions estimated at
N160 million at the minimum.
Our investigators found out
that, when not occupied by
General Buratai or members
of his family, the units he
acquired in Dubai are rented
out to guests for as much as
$500 a night.
Earlier investigative reports
by SaharaReporters found
that, as the Director of
Procurement at the Defense
Headquarters, General
Buratai diverted funds meant
for the purchase of vehicles
and motorcycles for Nigerian
troops involved in the fight
against Boko Haram
terrorists. Our reliable
sources in the military
revealed that the COAS
colluded with a front, a
businessman, to procure
used vehicles that were in
such bad shape that they
needed to be significantly
refurbished before they
could be used.
Documents obtained by our
investigators showed that,
on January 13th, 2013,
General Buratai reached an
agreement to purchase unit
“2711” at the TGF Marina
Hotel. Our investigative team
found that the purchase,
which the COAS claimed was
an investment through the
“Project TFG Marina Hotel,”
was completely paid for in
one transaction. Eventually,
the TGF Marina changed its
name to “The Wyndham
Dubai Marina.”
Our latest investigations
reveal that General Buratai
paid The First Group Real
Estate for his first real
estate acquisition through a
Skye Bank account in Nigeria.
General Buratai purchased
the second apartment days
after becoming the Chief of
Army Staff through a Skye
Bank account as well.
However, this time, he used
an army officer, Major
Emmanuel G. Adegbola of the
Nigerian Army Finance Corps
(N/10808), to make several
deposits for the second
Dubai real estate purchase.
Military sources told
SaharaReporters that the
COAS stole the funds from
Nigerian Army Accounts. One
source said it was a well-
known practice for senior
army officers to use their
subordinate officers to pilfer
defense funds, adding that
the practice took root during
the administration of ex-
President Goodluck Jonathan.
Numerous military chiefs who
served under Mr. Jonathan
have been indicted for
corruption and are facing
trial.
Major Adegbola’s payments
into the TFG Sigma 111
account in Nigeria (Skye
Bank 1770380452) show
that, between July 24 and
August 17, 2015, General
Buratai paid a total sum of
N42.2 million to the company.
