I would like to believe this story is FAKE and planted by those who wish to discredit the president and his party to simply gather sympathy for the opposition.
Since the coward GEJ was afraid of FeBuhari that he had to postpone the Election, then all the good people of Nigeria have decided and are fully ready to March4Buhari!!!
I thought it was the semi-literate old pensioner who was scared to death of having a debate:
Spoke with this day on the condition of anonymity.
Fake story!
Na this one you sabi sey na fake story.
When "Engineer" Aregbesola's Osun Defender and Thief'nuibu cabal's Nation dey quote unnamed sources on condition of anonymity to spread bogus allegations and MISINFORM us about our government, hope sey you dey also scream & shout fake news oh
vandutchboy: 1) The N23 million monthly is a constitutional provision that was voted by the National Assembly which also entitles Buhari to armed security and certain number or cars,paid vacation abroad and paid medical treament abroad as well.If you have a probem petition the National Assembly to change the law
If Buhari is a real saint that he PRETENDS to be then he should reject the bogus amount in SOLIDARITY with real workers who earn N18,000 minimum wage.
Abi im anti-corruption fight na against other people ni? Im nor sabi lead by personal example?
Bloody HYPOCRITE. That is what the old pensioner is.
Presidential candidate for the Congress for Progressive Change in the 2011 Presidential election, Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd), has frowned on the emergency rule in parts of the North. He alleged that innocent civilians were being killed in the states.
Buhari speaking during a Liberty FM Hausa Service Programme, Guest of the Week, on Sunday in Kaduna said that Boko Haram members were being killed and their houses demolished unlike the “special treatment” given to the Niger Delta militants by the Federal Government.
vandutchboy: Please read this article from New York Times when Buhari was in power he arrested over 4000 politicians and over 600 were convicted for corruption. If he had been in power for 8 years instead of 1 year and 8 months Nigeria would have been like Malaysia or Dubai by now.All the corrupt people would have been wiped out. http://www.nytimes.com/1984/01/10/world/4000-ex-officials-surrender-in-nigeria.html.
For a man who worked for Abacha for many years in PTF then turned around in 2008 to say Abacha did NOT steal shows that his very SELECTIVE, noisy and ruthless jailing of people was nothing but a boju boju, hide & seek ethnic cleansing of sorts.
A man who collects N23 million as pension while real workers are paid N18,000 minimum wage is the Baba of corruption QED!!!
BTW, can you also show me where Malaysia and Dubai developed by jailing people anyhow on the MERE accusation of corruption? I dey wait oh!
A total of $7.92billion in illicit capital flowed of out Nigeria in 2012, according to the latest report released by the US-based non-profit research and advisory organisation, Global Financial Integrity (GFI).
For the year 2012, only Nigeria and South Africa are the two African countries ranked in the top 20 countries for illicit financial outflows. Nigeria was ranked 17th behind South Africa, which ranks 9th with cumulative illicit financial outflows of $29.13 in 2012.
According to the report, “Illicit Financial Flows from Developing Countries: 2003-2012,” emerging economies lost a whopping $991.2billion in facilitating crime, corruption and tax evasion.
However, in the 10-year period between 2003 and 2012, Nigeria was ranked 10th with a cumulative of $157.46billion, surpassing South Africa which was ranked 12th with a cumulative $122.14billion. Also, Nigeria and South Africa are the only two African countries that were ranked for illicit financial outflows in the 10-year period between 2003 and 2012.
“The fraudulent mis-invoicing of trade transactions was revealed to be the largest component of illicit financial flows from developing countries, accounting for 77.8 percent of all illicit flows, highlighting that any effort to significantly curtail illicit financial flows must address trade mis-invoicing,” said the report.
$157.46 in 10 years gives a yearly average of $15.746.
Therefore $7.92 in 2012 alone is less than HALF the annual average, showing a REMARKABLE progress in this federal administration's SYSTEMATIC fight against corruption contrary to the clueless and baseless propaganda and noise of the opposition.
No wonder international agencies said illicit flows of corrupt money has reduced by more than half in 2012 alone compared to the average for 10 years (2002-2012)

Germeeu: y will u apply it to lagos state,lagos state has experiencing Change since. 8 years were rule by AD and 4 years under AC and another 2 years under ACN
I take this as an attempt at a joke so make I follow you laugh small
Seun: I feel bad for GMB. He should be resting at this point in his life. Advising younger leaders, etc. Not running for a job that can kill a young man. The interviewer really made things easy for him by initially asking questions that favoured him and his answers must have been disappointing to international viewers; his anti-corruption efforts won't be as drastic as they expect and his plan for boko haram is ... non-existent. His answer to the questions about his military rule were effective just because he doesn't look like someone people should be afraid of anymore. I feel sad.
And that is the saddest part- NO plan on how to fight Boko Haram.
I’ll meet other generals to draft anti-terror plan – Buhari
The Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), on Wednesday said that though Nigeria is a rich nation, its people are extremely poor due to bad governance.
He also promised to involve serving and retired military generals to devise an effective strategy to crush insurgency in the country, if elected as President in 2015.
barcanista: Bro, I know say your comments are weed driven, because they are so so unusual of a natural brain. What about your crayon? God bless your Nursery School Teachers for teaching you how to paint
They are so unusual for a typical LAZY black mind that prefers hand out and easy money rather than earn a living in DIGNITY through hard, smart work that adds VALUE to him and his society.
agabaI23: Yesterday evening I went to swim and I met a government contractor lodged in the same hotel.
He does not want GEJ back. His grouse with GEJ is that since he came, he is no longer making money the way he was making from contracts. He confirmed that though his money now comes straight into his account without interference, that he preferred the pre-Jonathan era when things were not as tight. That now, they check the validity of any contract before money is paid out and the guy dey fall hand for business.
Then I asked him what do you think in his performance in Agriculture(Adesina), he said he has done well I mentioned Aganga(Trade and investment) he said very well. he said NOI has done well too and went ahead to add the minister for works mike Onolememen. He said the man has done well too. Transport, he is impressed
And I asked, why won't you vote for him since you know all these? He said, he is not feeling him in his business. He wants things to go back to easier ways.
I told him about Sam Ohuabunwa's opening statement in his article where he said that good performance means different things to different people. He was a typical example of people who want him out because his reforms have reduced undue profit.
GEJ is fighting a hydraheaded monster. God is his strength
Oyinprince: are you kidding me? Someone who wants to rule the nation is forgetting the full meaning of his party's acronym? And even INEC? He doesn't even remember the time left to the election? Even my 7yr old kid brother won't forget it is 6weeks not months.
He even made the INEC mistake before and FFK mocked him and he's repeating it again?
I just hope this man does not win this election, he will be a disgrace to Nigerians both at home and to the international community
He may be another Yar'Adua waiting to happen then Thief'nuibu cabal will do to Nigeria what he has done to Lagos state and the south west.
Pastor Bakare, Muhammadu Buhari's VP candidate in 2011 election was asked to sign a Resignation letter and to step down for Bola Tinubu, if Buhari wins the 2011. This is the same agreement their Stooge, Pastor Yemi Osibanjo has signed for Tinubu that will ensure APC's dream for a Muslim/Muslim Ticket if Buhari wins. Fraudsters do not bring CHANGE!!

I believe that the freedom of speech does not allow the circulation of FALSEHOOD THAT IS AIMED AT INCITING THE PUBLIC.
I also believe this and similar acts of disseminating LIES should be dealt with by our courts of justice who need to deliberate and deliver judgement more quickly with very stiff penalty to DETER others.
Unlike the indiscriminating locking up of people under General Muhammadu Buhari's two year reign of terror.
