According to Breaking Times
President Muhammadu Buhari owns the sprawling Asokoro lakeside mansion located
at number 9, Udo Udoma Street, Asokoro, Abuja.
Investigations by Breaking Times on Wednesday unveiled President Muhammadu Buhari’s hidden property
situated at a choice location in Asokoro beside an exotic lake few yards away
from the Aso Rock Presidential Villa fence.
Since his inauguration on
Friday May 29, heavy security presence has been deployed around the area
surrounding the property. BREAKING TIMES reporters at the risk of their lives
managed to take photographs of the sprawling triple-duplex property on
Wednesday.
Professional estate
surveyors have valued the land on which the property sits at approximately N1.2
billion. Each of the three duplexes is valued at N300 million and this, when
added to the cost of the land is approximately N2.1 billion. Also, rent from
tenants on each of the three duplexes is estimated at N6 million per annum.
President Buhari’s Asokoro
property has been home to a former High Commissioner of an African country to
Nigeria.
The discovery of the Buhari
Asokoro mansion may have cast another huge credibility question on the modest
and anti-corruption credentials that got him elected on March 28, 2015.
It will be recalled that
BREAKING TIMES on Monday exposed details of how the new First Lady, Mrs Aisha
Buhari wore a Cartier Baignoire Folle 18-Carat White Gold Diamond Ladies Watch
that cost £34,500 (N10, 453,000) to the presidential inauguration on May 29, 2015.
Buhari played up his modest
background while on the campaign trail, claiming he was a pastoral farmer with
150 cows who could barely afford to pay for his presidential nomination form.
More than 50 percent of Nigerians live below the international poverty line of
$1.25 per day, according to the United Nations.
In January 2015, BREAKING
TIMES uncovered the expensive lifestyle of Zahra, the fifth daughter of
President Muhammadu Buhari, an undergraduate of the University of Surrey,
United Kingdom.
The exposure of Buhari’s
hidden assets is coming at a time Nigerians have intensified calls for the new
President and Vice-President to publicly declare their assets as they promised
to do during the presidential campaign.
Buhari was appointed
Chairman of Nigeria’s Petroleum Trust Fund (PTF) during the regime of Nigeria’s
late dictator, General Sani Abacha – a period in Nigeria’s oil revenue
expenditure that has never come under any serious probe or enquiry. The sum of
N25 billion allegedly disappeared from the public treasury at the time.
