This one na correct change

My dear, the source only compared the prices and models of their cars, not who bought it. Nigeria has a 2015 budget (which includes the presidency) which the government of GEJ did not pause. You could have made your comment without the abuse. It is well...

While both Goodluck Jonathan and Muhammadu Buhari prefer Mercedes-Benz, it seems that Jonathan’s taste in cars is much more simplistic than Buhari’s.

saaedlee:
Mr., that car has been in the President's fleet before Buhari won the election!

Caseless:
The OP is either dull or he's blind.


Since BUHARI assumed office, have you heard of any budget for presidency? When did BUHARI buy those cars? With whose money?




NB: you can't bring BUHARI down with your lies.

In terms of presidential cars, there is change indeed. While GEJ was riding an ordinary Mercedes-Benz S 350, Muhammadu Buhari prefers much more expensive and luxury model – Mercedes-Maybach S600.

While both Goodluck Jonathan and Muhammadu Buhari prefer Mercedes-Benz, it seems that Jonathan’s taste in cars is much more simplistic than Buhari’s.

Jonathan attended the ceremony of Buhari’s presidential inauguration inside an ordinary Mercedes-Benz S 350.

Muhammadu Buhari enjoys rides in much more comfortable and luxury Mercedes model after stepping into the presidential office – Mercedes-Maybach S600.

This car represents the top notch in the latest sixth generation of luxury Mercedes-Benz special class cars, labelled by company as the W222, while GEJ’s car belongs to the previous fifth generation –the W221.

Mercedes-Benz representatives describe Mercedes-Maybach S600 as “an extra highlight in the luxury segment.”

Available luxury appointments over and above what was offered in the W221 include a choice of massage type for each seat occupant, while the W221 offered various intensities of a single massage type.

Mercedes-Maybach S600 in base-line configuration costs around $258,000 or N51.6 million, while the price for the new Mercedes-Benz S 350 is only $135,000 or N27 million.

Upgraded versions of these cars for world leaders cost tens of thousands dollars more than their base-line configuration, but include the capability to withstand small arms fire and explosive devices, and a self-sealing fuel tank.
There have been huge scandals related to expensive car purchases under Jonathan’s rule.

Members of a committee handpicked by President Goodluck Jonathan to investigate the purchase of two BMW armored cars at a whopping cost of $1.6 million were intensely pressured by the former president to deliver a watery recommendation that exonerates Aviation Minister, Stella Oduah.
The committee set up to probe the N255m bulletproof car scandal in the aviation ministry has indicted the Minister, Ms. Stella Oduah.

DULLARDipo:
And his fat-faced almajiri wife too is a spendthrift

abubkhr:
OP as a president he suppose to be cruising S63 not ordinary S600. The guy try oo by downgrading himself to that level na

Caseless:
and what has budget that was presented under gej got to do with BUHARI? Was he part of the team that drafted budget for the presidency, and also made his choice of cars part of it?

doctokwus:
U are being lenient to these haters of good.
PMB is likely gonner stay till 2023.They ain't seen nothing yet.

doctokwus:
Though President Muhammadu Buhari has made his intention known to seek re election in 2019,I feel he has made the wrong call.
For any little legacy he would leave,any little integrity left for him to redeem,and for the continued corporate existence of Nigeria,Buhari can and should rescind that decision for the following reasons:
(1)He has left us more divided and divisive we ever can be,due to his sectional acts,parochial appointments and selectiveness in policies,speech,goverment direction and overall perception.
(2)

I witnessed first hand one of the most if not the most parochial,nepotic and utterly incompetent rulers Nigeria may ever have.
I witnessed first hand as the nation descended into anarchy overseen by a man who claimed he could solve the security situation.I also saw the lies and corruption in him when he cleverly failed to publicly declare his assets or show proof he actually had a school certificate,he claimed was stolen.
But the worse was the fact that the man whose 2015 election victory was majorly based on his assumed ability to fight corruption,was not only as corrupt as they come,but in our faces,embraced and elevated known corrupt elements to positions of power,impunity and immunity from any kind of prosecution,something GEJ even in the midst of the corruption pervading his government tried,as little as he could to either hide from our faces or at least made some feeble attempt to make people account for,when exposed and public scrutiny became too loud and unbearable.
Just 2 years into his first tenure,I came to the conclusion that Buhari has no redeeming feature and is a disaster one should not wish on even one's enemies.
I started shouting since then and events since have more than proved to me my assertion from 2017 of him being a failed case,is more than accurate.
I don't support blindly or stupidly and my support for him prior 2015 has been one of the greatest errors I hope to have ever made.
