President Goodluck Jonathan has declared that he does not own any bank account or property outside the shores of Nigeria.
He made the remark during the swearing-in of the 11 new ministers yesterday.
His words as tweeted by his Special Assistant on New Media, Reno Omokri, @renoomokri, “I am loyal to Nigeria’s economy. I don’t have accounts or property abroad. All my children live and school in Nigeria”
Nigeria former leaders are often accused of stashing stolen money in foreign accounts and owning expensive properties abroad; the recent is the revelation by the United States on Wednesday that ordered a freeze on $458 million in assets stolen by former Nigerian dictator Sani Abacha and his accomplices and hidden in European accounts.
The Justice Department said the corruption proceeds — stashed away in bank accounts in Britain, France and Jersey — were frozen at Washington’s request with the help of local authorities. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Over to you NE like Abacha's case make some findings whether his claims are true or false!
ReplyDeleteNigeraEye will not cos it will be a plus to GEJ.
DeleteIf ur claim is 2ru,den kudos 2 u!
ReplyDeleteKudos to him for presiding over a country where councillors have millions in their foreign account.
DeleteSame shuold be enforced on all public servants in nigeria, I see it as a way to better our country... Their children must not school abroad neither will they have properties or foreign accounts.... With that alone Nigeria will be hearing to a flight for a greater height.
ReplyDeleteNigerians do not know or value the type of president they have. No president in the history of your country can make this bold declaration even down to your ministers. We are saying this becuase we look from the outside. Support your President and help him to move your country forward.
ReplyDeleteI quite agree with u guys, some Nigerians don't value this presido until they lose him eyes go clear. Have always known he's a seasoned man! though he has his down sides just like everyone of us! we can always encourage him by contributing our own ideas to issues instead of insulting or names callings! kudos to u my presdo, u can count on my vote!
DeleteA wonderful leader who chooses to close his eyes to allow his subordinates to milk us dry.
DeleteFrom I have no shoes to. I have to I have no account or property abroad . The one that will truly thrill me is I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO TRANSFORM NIGERIA. LOL
ReplyDeleteU don't need to open an account abroad by urself to have money stashed abroad.u could use proxy whereby 1 of ur minister like Petroleum Minister or other ''boys''could run an account on ur behalf.Most of d money recovered 4rm Abach was not kept abroad under his name
ReplyDeleteI still believe in GEJ govt quote me anywhere...........i pity this country if Apc takeover this country
ReplyDeleteBut what about the education system in Nigeria, can you tell us where are your children schooling sir?
ReplyDeleteGEJ is the best president so far in Nigeria, no matter what. Let's support him. The devil we know is better than the angel we do not know.
ReplyDeleteYou are fool, support who or Sombi or because of that fake declaration. He can afford to pile up money in one of the cricks in Byelaya or what are you saying?
DeleteYemolala4me you are the bigger fool. Don't come to public domain to insult people. Everybody is entitled to his or her opinion. Respect urself, biggest fool of the century.
DeleteAm so tired of beast like Yemolala what ever useless name he goes by, how can u just call someone a fool for stating their opinion. If u think GEJ is not the best president so far, just say your own opinion, and also remember to add how u are not going to vote for him shikina! am just trying to imagine whats in your tiny dirty mind, that the whole of Nigeria hates Gej and no one will vote for him come 2015, hehehehehe you must really big the biggest fool in Nigeria to assume such an unthinkable thing. Let me spoil your day GEJ is the best president for me so far, millions including my humble self will come out under the sun to vote for him again should he chose to contest! please hug a transformer or jump better still jump into the river niger.
DeleteGo and sit ur arse down,campaing for ur bros where it matters not here. Value indeed!
ReplyDeleteMy president is a dedicated sevant of God, I always belive every word of his mouth, so I beg all nigerians to do the same.
ReplyDeleteThe bastard still fly abroad for medical treatment
Deletei don't understand you, anonymous 2:10pm, even your beloved apc chieftain that rule lagos for years with all the hospitals it has, (tinubu) still went abroad for medical treatment. even if we have all the equipment in the world, it will take time before we will get qualified trained surgeons to spearhead some certain operations. so you cant rule out flying abroad for treatment by government official for now!!!
DeleteWhy didn't you declare your asset when you were asked to do so? As a VP under the late Yar'dua, you declared, but as a President, you declined. I don't believe you, it is only FOOLS and WEAKMINDED IDIOTS that will believe that you, your wife and relatives don't have a foreign account. For me, it is impossible for a Nigerian politician not to have a foreign account. BASTARDS!
ReplyDeleteIt takes a bastard to know their fellow bastards! u are born of bastards and u are a chief bastard! good for nothing idiot.
DeleteWell,we can‘t really believe or doubt ur claims until we make our findings correctly but my only question is, were u a better person or is u nd ur administration free from corruptions for not having a foriegn account or investment? As for me TARAUNI, i personally don‘t see anything wrong if the president or any public office holder in this great country operate a foriegn account or investing in a foriegn land as long as the money used for such purpose is from his “GENIUNE,LEGAl and HARD“ earn money. So, mr president stop making a “FOOL“ of urself thinking u can play with our heads. Nither did Abacha tell NIGERIAN his plans to “THROW AWAY“ our country money to western worlds and the americans when he was in charge, only to find out after his death. The last time ur complain was u don‘t have a “SHOE“nd when we gave u the chance and opportunity to have some for urself, u re now “FORCEFULLY“ taking more than enough just to “WASTE“ exactly as ur “MENTOR“ (Abacha) did . And now u re here again asking us to give u another four yrs so that u can “KILL US ALL and SELL“ the country bcos u re “HEARTLESS and INGRATE“.
ReplyDeleteTaruani u are just a useless fellow, a bastard born of a prostitute mother! an armed rubber in the book haram sect, what kind of evil are u not involved in? after sucking the blood of Christians u have entered ur fellow moslems and now u abuse the president who has been too tolerant of u and ur fellow useless people. learn to keep ur usless opinion to your bastard useless self u talk rubbish all the time on this media. I hope when its a northern moslem's turn to rule u idiot will continue to talk nonsense. born to rule my assssssss!
Delete@ 2:10 u are a fool 4 calling ur President a bastard u don't ave home traning
ReplyDeletesince you do not have account abroad would you kindly declear your asset to nigerians as the late president did when he assumed office.
ReplyDeleteHe did not have shoes before but now has millions of shoes. He has no foreign accounts now, just wait for him...................
ReplyDeleteabroad or not. ur administration is not encouraging.
ReplyDeleteTarauni i dont know u will feel if Gej become ur president come 2015 i pray u will still alive but is better for you your vampire family kill you before then bcs if they did not kill you i personaly in this forum we stone you to death idiot man.....i dont think if you even has a family and if any any of your family has ever become a leader bcs if you or any of your family want to become a leader you wouldnt have been saying all this rubish to ur elder and a person who can feed you and ur generation
ReplyDeleteYou people are just deceiviing urselves most especially this useless TARAUNI i DONT THINK THE GUY HAS AN ENDERLY PERSON IN HIS FAMILY AND MAY BE HE CAN EVER BECOME A LEADER WITH ALL HIS BAD MOUTH
ReplyDeleteGoodluck do what God sent u and leave the rest for God let them be crying if the water frm their eye full the bucket for them to bath they will surrender useless people
ReplyDeleteIt is true as said by one commentator, looting money or running foreign accounts doesn't have to be in the name of the looter, looters often go through proxy who front for them. So, let the President not fool Nigerians for now.
