The minister of Communication and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami, has denied buying houses for his wives after assumption of political office.

The minister was reacting to a saharareporters publication, alleging that he bought three houses for his three wives in highbrow areas of Abuja.

“Our attention has been drawn to the grave falsehood Published by controversial online media, Sahara Reporters against the person of Honourable Minister Dr Isa Ali Pantami. The online media, has falsely accused him of procuring three houses within the period of his assumption of office,” the minister said in a statement by his spokesperson, Uwa Suleiman.



“For the purpose of setting the records straight, the Honourable Minister has not purchased a single property anywhere In the world, in the period he has been in office as a Minister. One of the apartments in the images published is one which the Honourable Minister has occupied since January 2017, more than two years before becoming a minister, while the other one is a house he rented since 17th December 2019. Two of the images are not even known to him.

“It is worthy of note that as a serving Minister, Dr Pantami’s salaries and allowances fall below his earnings as a Professor at the International University Madinah Saudi Arabia, where he still holds the record of being the first Nigerian to lecture at that level. He only returned to Nigeria out of the zeal to contribute his quota to national development.


“Dr Pantami is one of the few Nigerians who are driven by nothing, but an unequalled sense of patriotism and selfless service as demonstrated in his act of sacrifice, to answer the call to serve his country as a sign of his patriotism and selfless service. As a successful businessman in his own right who has been comfortable in life, he has carved a niche for himself in his character, deep sense of responsibility and successful feats.

“Dr Pantami’s integrity and credibility precede him, and his fight against corruption in both official and personal capacities have become a reference point not only nationally, but globally.

“The general public is advised to ignore all attempts to slander the name and image of the Honourable Minister. In the same vein, we plead with the Nigerian media to deploy the strategies of investigative journalism and avoid false sensationalism inorder to uphold the tenets of the noble pen profession.“

Hope you and your parents and siblings have eaten today before defending someone you are not sure of. The same people sitting on your destiny and giving you crumbs to defend them

There is a reason every human being has a brain.

Did Sahara Reporters show you any evidence that links the man and his wives to the said properties?

If sane people cannot be rational and objective in criticism, what then is the expectation from the insane?

Before you castigate people, ask for the evidence of the misdeed.

SpecialAdviser:


Its not Sahara duty to give you the evidence. Its the duty of the minister to sue Sahara if he thinks his hands are clean and that should be your major concern.

That's how you were caught stealing the side mirror of that car the other day.

SpecialAdviser:
Onye Oshi. Where did he even get money to buy the house even before becoming a minister.

What was his work before. Let him explain. This is what I expect from him. Explain your source of income even before becoming a minister.
