How Did Buhari Acquire The Wealth He Used To Train All His Children In UK? by franchasng: 4:51pm On Feb 08, 2019
Today, we read an eye-opening article/thread (if you missed that thread, read it here>>>https://www.nairaland.com/5010915/president-buharis-children-where-schooled) on where President Muhammadu Buhari's children schooled, and to the shock of many Nigerians who see Rtd. General Buhari as a man of integrity who never looted public fund and for that lived a poor life, and even trained his kids in Nigeria; according to one of his fervent supporter who always brandish this lie to everybody's face.

Note, we are happy that President Buhari trained his children abroad, since he and other failed Nigerian past and present Presidents joined efforts to destroy Nigeria's education system, it is justified for them to send their kids abroad to acquire better education to enable them stay ahead of the rest of Nigerians they impoverished through their callous leadership roles.


But before we forge ahead, let us remind readers that President Muhammadu Buhari before he became a civilian President in 2015, was:

1. a former Military Governor
2. a former Petroleum Minister
3. a former Head of Government Parastatal (PTF)
4. a former Military President

and under his watch, Nigeria witnessed no progress, instead he served under the most corrupt Military President of Nigeria; Gen. Sani Abacha who looted more than 70% of Nigeria's treasury in collaboration with those he worked with, and before we forget, let us remember that Crude Oil happens to be Nigeria's major source of income and revenue and under this corrupt Sani Abacha that looted Nigeria's treasury dry, now President Muhammadu Buhari was Abacha's Petroleum Minister.

Dear Nigerians, is it possible that Muhammadu Buhari did not help, join, collaborate or assist late Sani Abacha in his looting spree Let us also remember that President Muhammadu Buhari has continued to tell everybody that cares to hear, including foreigners that Late Sani Abacha was never corrupt, yet the same Buhari have been receiving $millions of Abacha's loot stashed in foreign banks now being returned to Nigeria by some of the friendly countries.

This takes us back to the question: HOW DID MUHAMMADU BUHARI GOT THE HUGE MILLIONS TO TRAIN ALL HIS CHILDREN ABROAD

As a former Military Head of State, Muhammadu Buhari is entitled to around NGN3.6million Annually from Nigerian government.

Buhari himself told Nigerians that his cow is around 150 in number, and that he owns no other investment aside his cattle business.

So let us assume that Muhammadu Buhari before he became President in 2015 earns an average of NGN15,000,000 annually, now take a look at some of the facts we got from some of the schools where President Buhari's children schooled....check how much he paid for his children tuition fees, excluding living expense for just one year, now compare it to how much Buhari earned annually before he became President and then ask yourself: IS MUHAMMADU BUHARI TRULY NON-CORRUPT DID MUHAMMADU BUHARI BENEFIT IN LATE SANI ABACHA LOOTING SPREE


We are only asking questions so that Nigerians can be aware of who is who and how these people have fooled us for years and destroyed our dear country and turned Nigeria into the poverty capital of the world with youth unemployment at the highest rate anywhere in the world, it hurts, it hurts so bad cry cry

If you calculate the total cost of tuition alone that Gen. Muhammadu Buhari spent on training his children in British Colleges and Universities in a year, you will be getting something around £40,000 - £70,000 annually.

If we use previous exchange rate of £1 = NGN245, it will give us a whooping sum of NGN17,150,000

There is no need cursing bro, go through the facts and figures and you will realize how dubious this man is....he has managed in telling so many lies for too long and always get away with it just because he comes from a particular tribe and religion.

I can tell you, the war against indiscipline of 1983 which made Buhari kind of popular as man of anti corruption, was formulated by Tunde Idiagbon, it was Tunde Idiagbon that did all those things not Buhari. Buhari knows his hands are as dirty as every other accused Nigerian politician of today you know, so quit all these Mr. Integrity crap, they are all crooks, thieves and destiny destroyers that have destroyed the destinies of millions of Nigerians angry angry

At least you all agree his cows have not increased from 150 for a very long time. This should answer your question.

So, you can now put in the same effort you used in researching the tuition of those institutions in researching the annual income of an owner of 150 cows in addition to several allowances to which he is entitled to in the various capacities he had served as a public servant.

So a man that owns 150 cows can train 5 children at the same time in a UK college, remember all the cost I posted are just tuition fees, I didn't add accommodation, books, transportation, feeding, etc....

Which other allowances, you can google the annual allowance or pension or whatever every former Nigerian head of state earns, and its not up to 5million naira in a year.

You think Sanni Abacha looted all those billions through Nigeria's crude oil and his best man Petroleum Minister didn't benefit It hurts that majority of Nigerians are just dumb and short-sighted.....no wonder politicians do anyhow in Nigeria and still get away with their stupidity angry angry

Some people's Children are trained by others either by virtue of their good-will or they need some kind of patronage.
I know of wealthy people that have never spent a dime on their children

Every former Head of state of Nigeria is entitled to N350,000 per month (https://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/01/fg-spends-n14-35bn-on-ex-presidents-vps-in-12-yrs/).

350,000 x 12 = NGN4,200,000

He is not entitled to any other allowance as a retired Army General because he is receiving allowance as retired Head of State which is the highest rank, and even if he is to receive another allowance as Rtd Army General, it won't be more than NGN180,000 per month

So the legitimate annual earnings of a former head of states, ptf boss and a cattle farmer with about 150 cows is less than 20 m according to you?

What of all the allowances they are given? 500K for every council of state meeting is an example

From the link you posted

LAGOS—By the end of this year, the Federal Government would have spent, at least, N14.35 billion on the up-keep of former presidents, vice presidents and their families, over a period of 12 years, Vanguard’s checks have revealed.

Read more at: https://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/01/fg-spends-n14-35bn-on-ex-presidents-vps-in-12-yrs/

Divide 14.3billion

Between all our ex presidents and vice.
Jonathan, YarAdua, Obasanjo, Abdulsalam, Abacha, IBB, Buhari, Shagari Mortala, Gowon Ironsi, Balewa = 12 Presidents. Give them another 12 Vice

Meaning 14.3b was shared between 24people in 12yrs
Per year it means they all shared 1.2b among themselves.
Now divide 1.2bn by 24 that is 50million per year
Meaning Buhari was earning 50M a year as ex president

Assuming Presidents and VPs got equally but we know Presidents got more than VPs

This is before adding his benefit as former General

As a former President or Head of state, you are not entitled to another pension aside pension as an ex President.

And from Nigeria's official figure, what a former President receives monthly is NGN350,000, and if you multiply it by 12 months, you will get NGN4.2million naira annual.

And even if we are to also add allowances as retired Army General (we can't add his role as PTF chairman because its a political appointment), it won't be up to 8million Naira annually.

Why are other Northern Cow rearers aren't sending all their children abroad to school at the same time

It hurts to see some Nigerians defend these crooks and thieves that stole their destiny to enrich their family members.

You need to see how luxurious his children lived in UK even before he won 2015 Presidential election, you better wake up cry

In your office does your car allowance, entertainment, furniture, lodging, transportation not go to your account
Nigeria doesnt but cars or furniture for them they pay them a certain amount for it per year

and will anyone hold you if you decide to use the allowance money to pay your kids school fees?

So if they give him money to pay his office staffs, driver, ADC, etc, he will just pocket it alone

They were talking about the cumulative expenses Nigeria incurred on taking care of past Presidents and Vice Presidents.....the direct cash that goes to their pocket monthly is less than NGN500,000.

How many times in a year do they hold council of state meeting

Admit the reality, Buhari benefited hugely in Abacha's loot, reason why he keeps defending Abacha to avoid Abacha boys and family exposing him undecided

His ADC are paid directly by military. the payment of drivers and staff depend on the number of cars he has. If he has 20 cooks, 20 drivers compared to if he has 4 cooks and drivers. So if you are given 5million to maintain cooks and drivers, a man with 4 cooks nd drivers will have extra while a man with 50 will finish it all

Moreover, Buhari only had 1 wife at a time and has a total of 8 children who are well spaced out. The oldest 44yrs old in March the youngest 15yrs.

Which meant he never had more than 2 maybe 3 kids in University at the same time. The oldest would have graduated around Year 2000 and the Youngest isnt even in Uni at this point,

A retired General and Head of state will have no problem putting 2 kids through UK university when ordinary Bank managers have 3 kids in UK schools

Shows he is a disciplined man unlike Atiku with gazillion children or Obasanjo who cannot count his that one of his wives even contested presidency against him

Buhari may not have looted as much as Obasanjo, which was why he cried and lied to come back and loot his share that IBB stopped him from looting in 1983.

Buhari is not a fowl thief but wherever he passes, fowls go missing. He is yet to account for the missing $billions of PTF of money.

Ibe Kachikwu accused Baru NNPC GMD of awarding illegal contract without approval to the tune of $24billion, what did Buhari do He demoted Ibe Kachikwu for exposing his looting via a front.

@raumdeuter don't ever swear or take an oath for Buhari, else you will die a miserable death. Stop defending Buhari, he has no integrity as claimed. He is just lucky and smart in having foolish followers out of tribal religious bigotism, nothing else

Instead of asking how a former Minister for Petroleum, former Military Head of State, former PTF chairman and current President how and where he got money to send his children to school, I think you should be asking how a retired Customs Officer and former Vice President how and where he got money to build an elite American University and how he became one if the richest politicians in the world.

Every region of my brain is intact.
I think and I reason well too.
This is just your discovery, it's everyone's assumption that nobody is HOLIER. In the midst of recovering looted funds, some funds are currently misappropriated, funds are embezzled. But it's minimal, those who get away with fund looting are scared because EFCC and DSS are the hottest watchdogs, they could bounce on you one beautiful morning.
About Abacha and Buhari, I don't have any CONCRETE information just as YOU don't too.
Just a reminder, "when you attain some certain positions, the benefits attached to the positions are not just for you nor your family, it "trickle-down" to many others."

You opened the thread to prove something, after I schooled you in Maths and logic you are back with your emotional rant.

Don't give up yet, take your calculator wear your thinking cap and explain how it will be difficult for a former General and ex head of state to pay 2 kids school fees in UK at a time. when ordinary civil servants send multiple children to UK
From what you posted in your original post, cost of UK university is between 10K pounds and 20K pounds that is N5M to N10M a whole year.

If you cannot prove he stole money then you will be the one to die a miserable death, either car accident or eaten by pigs.

Buhari has challenged you and your ilks to bring any foreign account you can link to him

https://guardian.ng/news/president-buhari-operates-one-bank-account-no-foreign-account/

No one has been able to. Its only corrupt people who will be looking for other people to join them, They cannot believe people will be in position of power and not steal

Like a prostitute will call other women ashawo because she cannot believe some people don't lie on their back to feed themselves
