Does he own the house?
If you purchase a house with a mortgage =debt ,you do not own the house
That is how Most average law abiding Americans live, on debt. Even the cars are purchased on debt

In Nigeria some people call it instalment. When you purchase a house with a mortgage, it belongs to the bank

You cannot use that house to borrow money because it does not belong to you
The typical arrangement is 5 or 10% down payment and monthly payments for 25 years

If you default the bank repossessed the property

What would be fraudulent would be to declare what does not belong to you

As a response to the Wike allegation it is weak and Watery.

Wike is a former governor. He is not a US resident therefore would not qualify for a mortgage ordinarily.
So he paid cash . Millions!! Where did he get the money

In fact this just adds to his problems because apart from where he got the money did he declare it. His wife who is a judge. Did she declare it?

His wife has two asset declaration hurdles as a governor's wife and as a judge




More important is the question of where he got the money and did he declare that income and pay tax on it

Wike doesn't own the properties, they belong to his wife, his wife is a US citizen.

Putindbutt:
It is under INEC guidelines

IWhich INEC Act makes it compulsory?

mrvitalis:
Drop evidence oga I dare you

budaatum:
Provide it here please so we all can see it.

Go and read INEC guidelines for party candidates, it's on Google, lazy yoots.

MadamExcellency:
IWhich INEC Act makes it compulsory?

Guidelines not an Act. He willingly obeyed the provisions and declared his assets to INEC by himself.

He is required to declare his and his wife's assets as governor that is our law.
He and his wife's assets must be declared on entering and leaving office
His wife is a judge she is required to declare assets
So the law applies to his wife. TWICE


Where did his wife get the money
Whether she is a US citizen is irrelevant .
US citizens generally get a mortgage they rarely pay cash or the full amount

Look at what was posted for Sowore 550000 House 500000 mortgage

He borrowed 90% according to their evidence

Your claim that she is a US citizen

How? By what route?

How are you sure they didn't declare them, do you have any evidence to the contrary?
Whether mortgage or not, Sowore is occupying the house and what are his means of paying the mortgage?

seunmsg:
Did he declare the property in his Asset declaration form? Again, it is irrelevant whether he has held a public office or not. If he wants to become president, he should declare the source of his income. Nigerians want to know where he got the money to buy the house. It could be proceed from Money Laundering so transparency at this point is very important. If there is nothing fishy, he would have declared the property and not lied on oath about it.

See them...people like u are ruining the country...I just don't understand what is wrong with people like u... they are stealing the country blind , and ruining tye future of the average man..and u keep on supporting them blindly.... what the 4k is wrong with u??

Did he pay cash for the house?
If he did not
If he borrowed then he does not own the house
It is NOT his ASSET. The house belongs to the mortgage provider and is liable to repossession if he defaults
This diversion does not work it only exposes you as a hireling
Did Wike pay cash for homes worth millions and where did he get the money

Are u serious right now ??

cr7lomo:
Are u serious right now ??

Mr seriousness, whose name is on the properties Sowore is shouting about?

Putindbutt:

Where is your evidence she is a US citizen

Commentor:
He did not declare at the point of contesting m

That's what they are implying.

So na lime this una wan take defend thief?

Sheuns:
Has Sowore ever held an elective position or had a political appointment ever in his life in Nigeria?

Why should anyone be bothered if he has a property in the USA worth $500k?

Lol. When South Africans and other insist most Nigerians are criminal in nature, you lot lend credence to that claim with your arguments making excuses for what is outrightly wrong. Did you read article at all? Pay attention to the bolded and then comment.

I think it is crystal clear Nigeria's issue is not a problem of leadership alone.

In a buildup to the 2023 general elections, Daily Trust reported Sowore’s asset declaration to INEC in which he stated ownership of a SINGLE PROPERTY valued at ₦5 million and a 2008 Toyota Camry.

But as at that time Sowore owned a property in the US which he bought at $552,000 (about N850m now).

He did not declare this property, thereby lying on oath in his Code of Conduct asset declaration and this is a criminal offense.

Violations of the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act attract severe penalties, such as asset forfeiture, and a 10-year ban from holding public office.

Lying on oath is also a criminal offense, which attracts 14 years of imprisonment.

Under the Criminal Code, Section 118 reads: "Any person convicted of perjury is liable to imprisonment for up to fourteen years."

Una no dey shame at all. Na like this una wan take defend thieves who stole their states dry?

Where is your evidence she is a US citizen

Where's your evidence she's not?

Putindbutt:

Whether mortgage or not, Sowore is occupying the house and what are his means of paying the mortgage?

Why are you asking me how Sowore pays his mortgage how is that my responsibility to answer?

You are free to write a petition just like Sowore did against Wike if you feel aggrieved

You can even ask ChatGPT it will tell you exactly what his mortgage payment is monthly

Putindbutt:
Where's your evidence she's not?

You said she is

You made the claim

I don't have time for childish games
If you have no evidence just block me

Are you even aware that the said property is in the name of two persons? At least according to the document the poster uploaded. Now, if two people co-own a property, is it proper for one of those persons to declare the co-owned property as his asset when he hasn't taken sole ownership of such property? You guys should learn to reason efficiently.

aribisala0:

It's not a claim, it's a fact. It is you that needs to prove to the contrary, you have been insinuating she's not.

SeeWahala:
uncovering of what exactly? . . . Nigerians, when will you ever stop pursuing rats and focus on tending to the raging fire 🔥

So right now the new APC lappy module is to uncover properties of private individuals who have never ever held either government or public office?

Okay, let them continue. We are watching 😏

Lol. Did he contest to be President of Nigeria or not which then require truthful declaration of assets to appropriate authority?

Yes or No? If yes, given that is the only correct answer, why did he exclude a high value property asset he owns in the US?

I think it is crystal clear, from the conduct of folksike you, that Nigeria's issue is not redtricted to a problem of leadership alone.

Did he pay cash for the property like Wike did or did he get a mortgage
If he got a mortgage does he own the house?
Is it his asset?
Can he put it in his will and bequeath it in case he dies?

The distinction is with a person who bought a house and paid the full amount upfront? Where did he get the money..?

This has nothing to do with South Africans

You are blocked

I do not have time for children

He is not a public office holder, so he can buy a billion dollars mansion if he can afford it. However, if he has been collecting money from evil international organisations to push out fake news in Nigeria, then he will end up like Judas Iscariot

Even if this is true, sowore has never held any elective position and I don't think he's been appointed sef in the country, so we cannot say he's mismanaged public funds

But can that be said of those who have been around the corridors of power for as long as we have known them?

He will be the one to answer your questions and not me. And guess what, that’s the essence of this publication. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands. We are simply asking for full, honest and transparent disclosures and nothing else.

lol. He should just explain why he refused to declare the property and then tell us how the property was acquired. It’s not too much to ask from an activist.
