The Minister of Communication and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami, has strongly denied buying houses for his wives since his assumption of political office.

The minister made this known in reaction to a saharareporters publication, alleging him of buying three houses for his three wives in highbrow areas of the federal capital territory, Abuja.

The minister in a release made available to the media has described the report as ‘grave falsehood‘ and such should be disregarded.

The statement partly reads;

“Our attention has been drawn to the grave falsehood Published by controversial online media, Sahara Reporters against the person of Honourable Minister Dr Isa Ali Pantami. The online media has falsely accused him of procuring three houses within the period of his assumption of office,” the minister said in a statement by his spokesperson, Uwa Suleiman.

“For the purpose of setting the records straight, the Honourable Minister has not purchased a single property anywhere In the world, in the period he has been in office as a Minister. One of the apartments in the images published is one which the Honourable Minister has occupied since January 2017, more than two years before becoming a minister, while the other one is a house he rented since 17th December 2019. Two of the images are not even known to him.

“It is worthy of note that as a serving Minister, Dr. Pantami’s salaries and allowances fall below his earnings as a Professor at the International University Madinah Saudi Arabia, where he still holds the record of being the first Nigerian to lecture at that level. He only returned to Nigeria out of the zeal to contribute his quota to national development.

“Dr. Pantami is one of the few Nigerians who are driven by nothing, but an unequalled sense of patriotism and selfless service as demonstrated in his act of sacrifice, to answer the call to serve his country as a sign of his patriotism and selfless service. As a successful businessman in his own right who has been comfortable in life, he has carved a niche for himself in his character, deep sense of responsibility and successful feats.

“Dr. Pantami’s integrity and credibility precede him, and his fight against corruption in both official and personal capacities have become a reference point not only nationally, but globally.

“The general public is advised to ignore all attempts to slander the name and image of the Honourable Minister. In the same vein, we plead with the Nigerian media to deploy the strategies of investigative journalism and avoid false sensationalism in order to uphold the tenets of the noble pen profession.“

shocked







Bauchi man.

No body is expecting him to accept that he did bought the house.
Just like every other Nigerian politician that specializes in lie, he will lie about it.
Even Burutai denied buying a house in Dubai

My question is did he have 3wives nd do they leave in separate houses in Abuja if yes then Sahara reporters said is true.

Many houses in Maitama nd Asokoro are owned by politicians without anybody living in them.

Honestly anyone with more than one wife is a drain on political resources. If you have a whole local government produced by your blokos, please open farm to feed your village. Don’t enter government with your greed and destroy others who plan their life with sense. Buhari as old as he is has one wife and children he can manage. Sahara Reporters should reveal documents that prove he or his wives purchased those houses.

Igbo's are he'll bent on tarnishing the images of hard working Buhari's Ministers.
