This article is deep and deserve to make front page on all national dailies and let the debate begin. I have always opined that a nation full of hypocrisy is doomed and won't make progress.

Jonathan was corrupt and looted our common patrimony massively, granted, but he's not the only corrupt politician in Nigeria and any fight against corruption must not only be seen as all encompassing, it must be fair.

It is note worthy to point out that the self-styled saint Tinubu, Fashola, Amaechi ati Turaki of Adamawa Atiku are product of corruption as non of them can honestly beat their chest and lay claim they have never lay hands on public funds. These are individuals who are millionaire in dollars and has only hold public office through out their lifetime. It's pertinent that they give account of their stewardship to the expropriated Nigerian masses who have suffered for too long by our heartless leaders and their proteges.

Buhari might mean well for Nigeria but if he want to be taken serious and seen as incorrupt he must not engage in selective justice but prosecute everyone whose wealth is questionable. Favouritism and nepotism are an offshoot of corruption and must be shun if we as a nation, clamouring for change, want to make progress.

The reverse is the case my good man, for if you see sense in it, then you not only need mental examination, but a total brain revaluation

Goke7:
Anybody who takes Fayose's statements against PMB's government does not know Nigerian Politcians very well, Fayose only brags in the open but will go behind to beg and apologise, even in the days where Tinubu was fighting obj, Tinubu will blast obj in the open but will go and beg baba in ota later. same thing with Jona and all his people, they were abusing Tinubu before the elections in the open but were begging him privately to dump PMB then. You will the SE and SS politicians and Governors abusing Obj that he is irrelevant but will later go and beg him in ota. This is Nigerian Polticians for you.

So all of you always praising Fayose for his statements should know this.

sammyj:
Perfect write up. Madam puff puff paper minister failed Nigerians apart from the wailing wailers that cannot or failed to read in between the lines.

OZAOEKPE:
"Grammar", Quote me anywhere.

ECOTERRORS:
you are damn funny.

jullary:
pls ask God for brain u seriously need it.

margclever:
and 2 imagine that his moniker bears dr.idowu , maybe he is a herbal doctor cos if he is a medical doc, he will surely forget his nokia 3310 in ur stomach after surgery

Nellybii:
See your life?
Imagine PMB declares these magnitude of assets, would you have reacted this way? wouldnt you have wailed to high heavens?
Bloody double mouthed hypocrite.
Sharrap already mtchewww

solonazzy:
Yea he said he wuld, I Dnt remember him giving tym frame wen he wuld... Bt u ppl wailed n wailed

dridowu:
1years old , are you satisfied with my age ?

Buzzj17:
does he have to make that promise before he publicly declared his assets?

Buzzj17:
Wike's Assests: his residence in PHC, Shopping mall in Abuja,housing estate in Asokoro Abuja and another hotel in PHc GRA.

dridowu:
Confuse ? Not me but you how do you expect him to declare ? May be you want Buhari to come on national tv and start declaring it out. Or you want Buhari to declare more than #30m . Have you forgooten that Garba Sheu has declared it on behalf of Buhari ?
If you/pdp are not satisfy with Buhari asset declaration then wait till CCB makes it public once more just like Garba Sheu did.
Lest i forget, tell Fayose that he should name where those Buhari asset his hidden.

Buzzj17:
Wike, one of your colleagues, a responsible governor from the south west has publicly declared his Assests. What are you scared of naa!!we thought you said u are copying PMb. At least give us your total net worth and location of your properties, let's do a litmus test on it.

midolian:
what else do you want MizMyColi? When it was yet to be made public, you cried until it was made public. Now it is made public, you are still wailing.

Wike submitted his form to the bureau just as buhari initially did when you hastily criticized him, but all you have to say about wike now is "Well done"..even when its clear to all that this man isn't going to make his public..you people sef! SMH

dridowu:
Hypocrite set of people, when Buhari declare it with CCB , they call for his head, Buhari made it public, they claim it was more than that as if they were their when Buhari was acquiring it. They have forgotten that an Ex Presi "did not give a damn" about asset declaration. Any elected officials that has no skeleton in his/her cupboard would declare it without fear.
GOD BLESS PMB

baby124:
Our states are absolutely ridiculous with how they approve outrageous loans for themselves. Something has to be done about that. They must be able to defend their loan request to Nigerians with some guarantee of pay back, and certain consequences for contractors and the governors who take out the debt

baby124:
Thanks, well I was right. 20bn in 5yrs vs 60bn from 1960 - 2009.

baralatie:
it still think PMB should get a RECOGNISED AND EXPERIENCED FINANCE AND ECONOMIST O someone who is familiar with working against the ropes(I.e. will deliver positive results in a year)

1,with no doubt,the easy way out is the obj/iweala plan(at least shed between 30% -40% of the local debt) and follow on some specifications as highlighted.
we will be hitting positive indices!!

baby124:
It is not really that hard to investigate all that. Money always leaves a track record. His economic team can do that in the interim while also doing their work. In the interim, the government needs to take away the absolute power of idiotic state governments being able to borrow money at will through approval of their fellow thieves in state house of assembly. Without a viable plan, such borrowings should not be approved. This will cut down the ability of governors and their co-conspirators to put the country into more debt. See Ekiti already entering how many billions of debt, I am not sure if they have any sure plans sef. I am not sure about when all the debt you talk about was taken out. [s]But I have to guess in the last 5yrs. OBJ the old fox outwitted these foreign swindlers into debt forgiveness and took to his heels. This past government for sure put us back into that debt. I doubt very much that this debt is coming from Abacha's regime. I will do some investigation and get back[/s]

Abagworo:
The reality is that our dependence on oil and failure to utilise the opportunities when oil prices were high has made our monotonous economy a victim. A golden opportunity was mismanaged. Our major hope is to reduce importation and encourage local production.

Having inherited a near collapsed economy at a time oil prices are nosediving, Buhari just like in 1983 has a serious economic task ahead. Emefiele's Dollar policy is helping save our economy from free fall while it affects the advantages of our situation to the Western capitalists. This threat is meant to force Nigeria allow that free fall.
