I will declare my assets declares Buhari

Ok... I dont know what will happen to this country if Jonathan rules for another 4 years! Buhari may be no saint but abeg I think should be given a try to see if he can fix this country. Jonathan have been given more than enough time and he has failed worefully! Well so the gist from the Punch is that buhari will declare his assests if elected. Now thats a good start...

More details

APC presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari said he will publicly declare his assets if elected as the president of Nigeria.

Buhari stated this in a document obtained by Punch on Thursday, February 19, 2015. The document highlights what the APC presidential candidate will do in his first 100 days if he assumes power on May 29.

Buhari said he would encourage political appointees in his administration to also declare their assets publicly. The people’s general, in the document titled, “I plegde to Nigeria” said that all his political appointees would only earn salaries and allowances as prescribed by the Revenue and Mobilization and Fiscal Allocation Commission.

Buhari said “I pledge to publicly declare my assets and liabilities, encourage all my appointees to publicity declare their assets and liabilities as a pre-condition for appointment. All political appointees will only earn the salaries and allowances determined by the RMFAC.”

Buhari will be the second Nigeria’s President to publicly declare his asset if he keeps to his promise.

The former and late president of Nigeria, Alhaji Umaru Yar’dua, also from Kastina state as Buhari, was the first and the only Nigeria’s President to have publicly declared his assets when he assumed office.

Late Yar’dua’s action forced his then deputy, who is now the President, Goodluck Jonathan, to also make his assets declaration forms available to the public.

However, since Jonathan assumed office as the substantive President, Goodluck has refused to make the forms available to the public, saying that he did that when he was serving as deputy to Yar’dua.

When asked during the presidential media chat whether he would consider declaring his assets publicly, Goodluck refused, saying he don’t give a damn.

Well...  All I can say is dont waste your vote. Am not campaigning for any body o just saying how I feel. Shekena
