waiting to see that loud mouth, fayose's asset...

Mynd44:
Nigerian media ain't shít. When did "Imperative" become "must".

The president cannot make it compulsory for state governors to declare anything. He can only force his ministers and political office holders he employed

Gbawe:
Nigerians should insist leaders declare their asset after leaving office as you state here. One thing bad about Nigeria/Nigerians is that we leave the onus of good governance entirely on leaders without realising our civic duty as the voting electorate in a democracy. After office, no leader, even the entirely honest ones, will make any asset declaration if this is not made made mandatory and if the public does not insist they must see this. Buhari has done the right thing. Let Nigerians too focus on doing the right things that deepen our democracy. Nigerians must learn to hold leaders accountable as others do in the best democracies worldwide. We all have a role to play in the chain of good governance.

MadCow1:
Erm..

Sorry it does not work that way. The moment you choose to become a Public figure, the number of things you can classify as personal are very limited.

Asset declaration being a legal requirement under the Nigerian Law for public office holders can be subpoenaed and made public especially if there is proof that the declaration contains false information.


The useless part of the FOI bill is that no information is actually free.

Firefire:
All governors must declare their assets publicly...

Lalasticlala the CHANGE must work... Good morning.

Some people simply don't understand that Buhari is being very clever. Buhari is putting public pressure on others at different level of governance. A governor who will not declare his asset, when others have, will soon be seen as a leader with something to hide by the electorate. The "don't give a damn" refusal of GEJ to declare his asset was one of the things that put the public off our former President. That was the point many Nigerians realised Jonathan is corrupt and working for 'awon boyz' and not for ordinary Nigerians. well done Mr.President. We are in a democracy but a smart president will know how to use public pressure to whip leaders in line. Buhari's aim, ultimately, is to create a society where leaders are more accountable to the people.

LightofEarendil:
It is interesting to see so much focus on PMB assest declaration. I wish so much pressure can be put on those of Government at the State and LG level.
In fact, the pressure on PMB should be reversed and put on our State governors and officials. Without this, true dividends of democracy will continue to elude us.

MadCow1:
The Freedom of Information law also allows the public to get access to those information so why exactly are they hiding it?

chukwudi44:
There is no constitutional provision mandating the Governors to make public declaration of their assets

Ikiriye:
Go to the bank

5starmilitant:
This ur dictator messiah must know that we are no longer in the military era. This is democracy and we follow the constitution. He can't force the governors to publicly declare their assests, whether pdp or apc. He was not the one that appointed them, so he can't force them.........sometimes I wonder why these slaves can't just admit when their brainless messiah is going wrong

Gbawe:
you guys are unbelievable and you lend credence to the claim that Nigerians are some of the most difficult people in the world to deal with. Buhari declared his asset with the appropriate authority yet you claimed you wanted this made public even as some of us told you his asset will be verified and then made public. Now that the net worth of Buhari has been made public you move on to call it "partial asset declaration" and you are now insinuating, without any tangible evidence whatsoever and as gossipers will do, that "most of his assets are presumed to be in his wife's name".

I hope you understand that the first Lady is not a public official. She is entitled to full privacy and a sensible, fair-minded and politically sophisticated person will appreciate this. In sophisticated climes the public tend to leave the spouse of public officials alone especially when said spouse is well-behaved, keeps a low profile and is not controversial. Our first lady is doing this so far.I think everyone here knows you are biased against Buhari but you must give him credit when he does the right things, as some of us did with Jonathan even if we did not approve of him as a leader, instead of trying to look for new and insignificant ways to fault everything he does. Immediately moving focus to the first lady, after Buhari's asset is made public as you and others vehemently demanded, just shows that you are not genuinely interested in the reformation of Nigeria. You just want to find dishonest, ungracious and petty ways to criticize everything the government does whether good or bad. If the first Lady declares her asset then I am sure you will tell us that Buhari and his wife's asset is "presumed to be in their daughters/sons name". If Buhari's children declare their asset then you will say the Buhari family's asset is in the name of their local Imam. Where does it stop? the man has done the right thing. Let it go and learn to criticise constructively.

mccoy47:
So according to PMB what he did was an asset declaration?
smh for this government.
For the nitwits about too tag me a wailer. go back to the annals and see late. president Yar adua's declaration ( precision of assets and liabilities is the watch word here) then compare it with Shehu Garba's announcement (PMB asset declaration) and tell me the difference.

EdCure:
Way to go!

But disclosure to the public should be made optional. Not everyone is comfortable with disclosing their complete worth...but it's a price they must pay.

glassjar1:
THIS MAN WILL END UP LIKE YARADUA

onomeglo:

MISSNORA:

CUM4WHAT:

Firefire:
Noted!

But the wife is super-rich, donating drugs worth N135 Million Naira to the IDP in Adamawa, wearing a wrist watch allegedly costing 34,500 GBP.

I think, I better start recording my assets in my wife's name...

Nigeria must be great again!

Btw: Bukola Saraki DECLARE YOUR ASSEST.

Ayodele Fayose, please lead the other governors by setting the space, declare your assets.
