Buhari, Osinbajo Declare Assets

Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari and
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, have declared their assets.
A statement by the Senior Special Adviser on
Media and Publicity to the President, Mr
Garba Shehu said that prior to being sworn in
on May 29, President Buhari had the
followings:
– N30 million to his name;
– one bank account, with the Union Bank;
– five homes, and two mud houses in Daura;
– two undeveloped plots of land, one in Kano
and the other in Port Harcourt;
– own farms, an orchard and a ranch.
The total number of his holdings in the farm
include 270 heads of cattle, 25 sheep, five
horses, a variety of birds and a number of
economic trees.
The President uses a number of cars, two of
which he bought from his savings and the
others supplied to him by the federal
government in his capacity as the former
head of state.
The rest were donated to him by well-wishers
after his jeep was damaged in a Boko Haram
bomb attack on his convoy in July 2014.
President Buhari “had shares in Berger Paints,
Union Bank and Skye Bank”.

The statement further added that the vice
president, Professor Yemi Osinbajo (SAN), had
the following assets:
– a bank balance of about N94 million and
USD900,000 in his bank accounts.
– 4-bedroom residence at Victoria Garden
City, Lagos and a 3-bedroom flat at 2 Mosley
Road, Ikoyi;  2-bedroom flat at Redemption
Camp along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway and a
2-bedroom mortgaged property in Bedford,
England;
– a law firm, known as SimmonsCooper;
– shareholding in six private companies based
in Lagos, including Octogenerium Ltd.,
Windsor Grant Ltd., Tarapolsa, Vistorion Ltd.,
Aviva Ltd. and MTN Nigeria.

The presidency had earlier denied that
President Muhammadu Buhari promised during
the election campaign before the April general
elections earlier this year to declare his
assets if he became President.
