The Federal Government on Friday dismissed as untrue claims that President Muhammadu Buhari donated $500m to Hillary Clinton campaign in the just-concluded US election, describing the accusation as being 'Crazy'.

A video, purportedly circulated by a US non-governmental group, the American Black Group for Democracy, had last week alleged that Nigeria donated $500m (about N150bn) to Clinton’s failed bid for the White House.

It claimed that the money was “pledged to the US Secretary of State, Sen John Kerry, and US Ambassador in Abuja”; adding that “the donation may create a huge misunderstanding between Nigeria and the incoming Trump’s US government.”

But in a reaction on Friday, the Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to the President, Mr. Garba Shehu, described the accusations as crazy, insisting that “Nigeria doesn’t have this kind of money to throw around, according to Punch Newspaper reports.”

“What is the craziest accusation made against President Buhari?” Shehu posted on his Twitter handle, @GarShehu.

“That he donated $500m to Hillary’s campaign and that Donald Trump is angry. This has gone viral, sadly Nigerians are believing it!

“President Buhari’s Nigeria doesn’t have this kind of money to throw around. Even if the money is there, this President is the least likely person to give it as donation, and for what?”

Nah you wire the money ?

Sit back and think

Thy shall not bear false witness

Then why were you at the climate change programme in Morocco. Why were you riding shotgun with Amina Mohammed, in a convention for environmentalists. Why were you at a private meeting with John Kerry.

You are a liar and a buffoon. After using our national coffers to play alawi, and losing like a phool, you now want a refund. May lightning strike you and your kardashian family

Hmmm, I am starting 2 believe this story. When u see big persons (fg) pay attention to rumors like this, then there bound 2 be some elements of truth in it.

The money went to the criminal Clinton Foundation and not Clinton's campaign group.

Chagoury has donated over a billion dollars to the Clinton foundations since the Abacha era.

Use sense

Edited.

Trump has vowed to investigate the criminal Clinton Foundation and from there we will know for sure how much (and not if) the buhari govt paid to the clintons.

I won't be putting my money that buhari will see the end of his presidency.

I actually agree with your theory, IT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE

I never expected the presidency to accept making that donation so no news here.
This is still a push and start/reactionary government, what we need is a proactive government in Nigeria. The country is hemorrhaging badly while Nero junkets and blames round the world

Just negodu! Do you think everyone is a thief like Mr. America will know? who shamelessly shared the nations patrimony for his selfish reelection bid? Anyway
