Leave zombie work and work hard so your daughter will also have billions registered in her name.

This is absolute rubbish written to defend Obi.
On tax evasion, I agree that there is nothing wrong in investing in countries that permit you to pay little or no tax.
But on Obi's lack of transparency in NOT declaring his investments in such countries outside Nigeria (while attempting to serve / while serving in public office), he is absolutely wrong!
If Obi did not have anything to hide & he truly wanted to serve the people transparently, why will he keep such secrets?
I will continue to say it, Nigerians are the most evil set of human beings God created, they always find justification for EVERY WRONGDOING humans are capable of doing.

Peter Obi is fraud but his people will not call him out. He has bought the whole alaigbo with his blood money. Young igbos are suffering and he is keeping money in overseas

nedekid:

Obi never claimed to be of modest means. The man has been a billionaire before becoming a governor and still is.
Yes, you may say modest lifestyle, conservative spending. That does not dispute the fact the man is wealthy.

The Pandora Papers: How the world of offshore finance is still flourishing | Four Corners

For months, more than 600 journalists from around the world, including the ABC, the Washington Post and the BBC, have been working with the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists on this top-secret investigation.

One of the biggest data leaks in history, the papers reveal how the wealthy and powerful are continuing to use offshore tax havens to hide their ownership of assets and stash their cash - despite attempts to rein the industry in.

On April 4, 2016, PREMIUM TIMES published details of the offshore assets Mr Saraki and his wife, Toyin, concealed in offshore tax heavens as part of the Panama Papers collaborative investigation.

The revelations coincided with the false assets declaration trial of the senator at the Code of Conduct Bureau in Abuja, but the charges were largely about his local assets and some foreign bank accounts because authorities had not uncovered his offshore shell companies.

it is called securing the future of the child. Every rich parents do it, so do not make his own a crime.. If you have money, you will secure the life of your kids with cash in bank and assets to their name....

RodgersAkpafu:

How about Tinubu stealing Lagos blind and turning many of the youths into thugs and aspiring thugs ?
Look around Lagos and see these guys (a wasted generation)
This is directly the legacy of the frog eyed ex drug baron that many worship

Shame on una

Most young people wonder why Nigeria is in this terrible state it is, well this is one of the reasons right here.

I mean we all complain why we don't have good leaders, why our leaders keep taking us for granted with impunity ; but then we forget we are the ones who empower and encourage them to do so.

I understand the author of this article claimed he's trying to fact check the Peter Obi's alleged corruption against the law, but what he doesn't know is that he has given an easy way out for the man to wriggle himself out of this mess he presently found himself and has even encouraged more politicians like Peter Obi to do this same thing and get away with it.

Nobody accused Peter Obi of being a thief years after his tenure expired as a governor probably because he had all his flanks covered and even kept on boasting about his clean and impeccable records up till this moment that the Pandora papers actually revealed he's not as clean as he claimed to be. Now a lawyer boldly coming out to start explaining tax law just to prove that the man might have done one or two things to help himself to make some money against the "Mr integrity" picture he was selling to us all ; it just looks somehow.

Later we will all be complaining why People like Tinubu and Odili got perpetual injunction prohibing the authorities from trying them for allegations bothering on financial misappropriation if their hands are actually clean; we will complain why EFCC didn't go after Tinubu after the bullion van episode; we will complain why Orji Uzor Kalu is a free man today walking up and down Nigeria on political visits despite what he did with Abia state's funds through Slok...... What we fail to understand is that people like this author that are smart and young will always be there to offer their "professional views" and claim to be fact checking when in fact they are emboldening future politicians to even do worse Than the present.

Tinubu is a Fraud and Thief are you satisfied, can we now return to Peter Obi

as in ehn.. This rubish can only happen in country like Nigeria. People go to jail in developed countries for his type of offense but since it's Nigeria emotion it's always attached to it and you see people supporting criminals. We still have a long way to go in this country.

The godforsaken idiots quoting me should also ask why he didn't declare it as assets before entering office. He registered it in his kids name simply because he didn't want to declare it.

Peter Obi should forget presidency.... he's has more chances at president of August meeting association.....

henryobinna:
no, people don't go to jail for opening businesses in other countries irrespective of the countries' tax laws. Every known billionaire has businesses registered in countries with low tax rates, many companies that you and I know have their headquarters in countries with lower tax rates.

Even in the USA well known billionaires including their immediate past president, take advantage of different tax avoidance measures inorder to pay less taxes, it is not a crime in any part of the world to reduce the amount of tax you pay long as you didn't commit any crime in the process.

Some of you need to read some journals on businesses. It's not surprising for someone to have an account or a business in a different country.

If you let the taxman, he'll take 100% of your income, it's your job as a smart business man to pay as little tax as possible within the boundaries of the law.
