I am very objective.
I will be the first to praise buhari for the many good decisions he will probably make.
And i will be the first to criticize and chastise him for his goofs which i hope for the sake of Nigerians are not many.
The question is; are you objective?
Every Nigerian should be and I'm certainly not left out.

I pray they publish the declared assets this week just to douse tension amongst Nigerians, I really do.

GEJ is supposed to be a clueless failure,remember.
Yar'adua did his in less than 40 days.
Muhammadu buhari is supposed to be the best thing since sliced bread.
I expect him to outdo yar'adua.
And how long has PMB be in power? you fools should relax and let me man settle down in office. Someone took over power on Friday and have the weekend to rest and start work today (monday) why are you guy crying so fast.

Olodo, who said he declared his assets in September 2012 grin.

For your information, before you assume the powers of the President you must declare your assets to the CCB as stipulated by the 1999 constitution as amended.

My advice, stop exposing your ignorance on the forum grin
You are the fool here and you are just thinking with your anus and not your brain.. read the article below and check the date fool.

It is really depressing that some Nigerians are saying Buhari should not declare his assets publicly. What happened to the promise he made during campaign to declare it publicly?

Are we saying it is ok to break campaign promises?
We know some of the campaign promises were stupid and will be impossible to fulfil like making 1 naira to be equal to 1 dollar and like stabilising global oil price, but declaring his assets is a easy promise to keep.
Did you read the article at all? If yes, you need to go back to your secondary school to rewrite your comprehension and summary.

My opinion though...

The CCB does not have the right to do that.
Yar'adua personally declared his assets.
Your buhari is not a better man than him.
Ok how long does it take yaradua to do that and how long does the contitution states for them to declare their assets.

What about the political appointees you are going to make which u promised will be made on the premise that they will declear their assets too. Soo they will declear after appointement ? By d way it will take u just a minute for what u have put down with the CCB to be published. Or do u have the mind of doctoring it ? Sir no vex na kwesion I dey ask oo

Yes there's no law that says you should declare your assets publicly. It was this statement that embolden Jonathan to say he doesn't "give a damn" concerning public declaration of assets.

Buhari was the one who said he would declare his assets publicly. So are you saying Buhari should break his promise and shouldn't "give a damn" too? grin.
Stop ranting boy and try to learn to live with it cos there is nothing you can do PMB will be your President for the next 4 to 8yrs, Beside the contitution stated that 100days in office so go and cool down and do something meaning with your data.

It's no LIE by law, declaring with CCB means you've publicly declared. The only thing working against him is the Nigerian understanding of public declaration which to them is publishing it on the pages of newspapers.

I think Nigerians should give them the benefit of the doubt, I mean what's the worse that could happen ??

I'm sure it will hit the papers if not today, within the week. Even Olisah Metuh knows this and that's why he's keeping mute on the issue for now.

President and his vice didn’t err—Ngige

Chief Emeka Ngige, SAN, argued that the president and his vice did not err in the declaration of their assets. Ngige said: “There is nothing wrong in what the President and his vice have done. Anyone who is not satisfied with that should go to the Code of Conduct Bureau to get the information they need on the declaration. If the Code of Conduct refuses, they can invoke the Freedom of Information Act. When President Yar’Adua did his declaration, he asked the code of conduct to make it public.

“Yar’Adua did not make his declaration public. People should desist from making noise about it because the President and his vice did the right thing. Getting information about the contents of the declaration should be done accordingly through the code of conduct and if it refuses, people can approach the court and the court can order the code of conduct to make it public.”

The courts should decide—Ajulo

A lawyer, Mr Kayode Ajulo said the courts should be allowed to make a pronouncement on the matter. Ajulo said: “All I know is that we Nigerians just want to be intellectually lazy. It is so clear that Buhari declared his assets, there is no fuzz about anyone declaring his assets or not. When it comes to the declaration of assets under Code of Conduct law, you have to swear to an affidavit, that affidavit is pursuant to an old act, it is called the law of federation. In that act, any oath you are making in Nigeria, it is a public declaration.

Buhari should not be stampeded— Mohammed

Second Republic lawmaker, Dr. Junaid Mohammed maintained that Nigerians should not blackmail or stampede President Buhari into declaring his assets publicly.

His words: “Nigerians must learn to live by what our rules and regulations say when issues like this come up. No democracy without rule of law and Buhari has done what he is supposed to do within the confines of the law”.

Mohammed added that “without sounding irrational, I can personally state everything owned by Buhari. We have to be realistic and it is sheer nonsense when you are trying to tell a man what he already knows or what he is supposed to do. But no one should stampede him in publicly doing it the Yar’Adua way. I don’t mind him declaring publicly but I will oppose anybody trying to stampede him into doing what our law clearly states which he had already done”.

GEJ and other political office holders declared their assets.

CCB only confirmed to the public in 2012 that Jonathan has done his as President. Did you hear anything of Kwankwaso, Amaechi and co? Or do you think that the law doesn't apply to them? Every office holder MUST declare b4 CCB within 3 months and everyone did. So if CCB comes out today and said Fashola did his, will it mean that Fashola just did after leaving office?

Perhaps you should say, they should publish their assets on the papers, which I believe they will eventually. But they have done the needful by declaring with CCB which is same as declaring publicly as anybody can get the information upon request from CCB
No sir!
If its like that why was GEJ criticized over the same thing?
GEJ declared his assets with the CCB but refused to make it public.

Asset declaration with the CCB doesn't qualify as making it public because the layman out there can't have access to it without a recourse to the law!

If its so, there is no difference between PMB and GEJ in this matter.

VP Goodluck Jonathan 
The Vice president Goodluck Jonathan yesterday capitulated to public pressure over the public declaration of his assets as done by his boss, President Umaru Yaradua as he made public his assets declaration to the Code of Conduct Bureau.

The assets which were made public by the senior Special Assistant to the Vice president on Media and Public Affairs, Ima Niboro indicates that the value of the Vice president total assets and cash in banks stands at N295,304,420.

This is about N561, 148,472 less than the assets declare by President Umaru Yar’Adua who declared his total assets to be at the value of N856,452,892.

Mr. Iniboro said the vice president’s decision to make public his assets declaration was to show that ‘there is nothing to hide’.

He added that the vice president is ‘a firm believer in the rule of law and this has guided his conduct in office through the years.

“It is this belief that also guided his position that having declared his assets for a total of seven times, there was no point in going further to publish the declaration” he noted

The vice president’s aide regretted that the position of the vice president not to make public his assets declaration had ‘generated an unfortunate storm, which is not only distractive but also quite unnecessary. We are worried that some newspapers and citizens we hold in high esteem have joined the fray.

“This merely shows that in the affairs of man, there comes a time when even the law must take a second place and the public mood must define our actions. To The Vice president, this is such a time, hence the choice to send you a copy of his declaration for publication” he said.

In the assets declaration made public yesterday, it indicated that the vice president submitted his assets declaration before Justice Muktar Dodo of the Abuja high court on 30th May 2007, a day after the oath of office and oath of allegiance was administered on him.

A break down of the assets of the vice president indicates that he has four buildings located in Yenegoa, Abuja and his home town in Ogbia, Bayelsa state.

The Vice president said he owns a five bedroom Duplex in Gwarimpa 11, Abuja which was acquired in 2003 through loan and is valued at N24,990,000 while another Seven Bedroom Duplex, which he described as Village personal Home is located at Otuoke in Ogbia Local government area of Bayelsa state. It is valued at the cost of N18,000, 000 and was acquired through ‘savings and gifts in Kind.

The last of the Vice president’s residential buildings are the Four bedroom Duplex acquired in 2003 through ‘savings and gift in Kind’ in the Kpansia area of Yenegoa. The value of the building, he said is N15,000,000. The last Building is the extended Family house in Yenegoa which he said is a four flat storey Building acquired between 2003 and 2007 through savings. The value of the property is put at N10,000,000.

Under vacant and undeveloped plots, the vice president stated as follows: 1032.50 square meter of land located at Onopa Yenegoa and valued at N3,098.00. Plot 2C, 374 Low density Area Yenegoa allocated by the bayelsa state government and valued at N150,000. 2760.00 square meter plot at cadastral Zone BO2, Durumi, Abuja allocated by the federal Capital Development Authority and valued at N5,578,540. One Parcel of farm Land at Otuoke Ogbia acquired through inheritance and estimated at the value of N50,000,000.
