Due to
further investigation, the lady Gov Fayose of Ekiti state wired money to abroad
known as Aisha Buhari is not the wife to president Buhari, is a different lady
completely but by the name Aisha Buhari.
Although
previous report according to Premium Times stated………………………..
EFCC’s move on the Ekiti
State Governor, Ayodele Fayose’s account over suspicious movement of funds,
Governor Ayo Fayose has hit back at the President by reminding the nation of
the President’s wife, Aisha Buhari’s alleged role in the former U.S.
Congressman, William Jefferson bribery scandal.
Ayo Fayose on Monday
circulated a link to the U.S. Department of Justice website containing court
documents regarding the alleged involvement of the First lady in the bribery
scandal. The documents alleged that Aisha Buhari transferred suspicious funds
to the convicted former American congressman, Williams Jefferson.
Fayose, in a statement
released to its effect signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, said
the President was far from being a clean man.
The statement said:
“Even the President cannot
claim to be an angel.
“The estate he built in
Abuja is known to us. His wife was indicted over the Halliburton Scandal (sic).
When that American, Jefferson, was being sentenced, the President’s wife was
mentioned as having wired $170,000 to Jefferson. Her name was on page 25 of the
sentencing of Jefferson. We can serialize the judgment for people to see and
read.”
Following this move, Ayo
Fayose’s Special Assistant on New Media, Lere Olayinka, later circulated links
and copies of the court document detailing Mrs Buhari’s mention in the scandal.
According to the documents,
the U.S. Government Sentencing Memorandum on page 22 reads: “Government
Exhibits 36-87 (6/26/02 $170,000 wire transfer from account in Nigeria in the
name of Aisha Buhari to an account in the name of The ANJ Group, LLC,
identifying “William Jefferson” as Beneficiary)”
Recall that an
investigation into the case by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,
EFCC, mentioned the President’s wife in its report released on June 22, 2006.
According to a New York
Times’ article in 2007, Mrs. Buhari was reported to have disclosed her
relationship with the former U.S. Congressman to an acquaintance in Washington.
The article reported, “As
the pair struck up a conversation and subsequently became friends, Mr. Assiba,
then a security guard, said she told him that her father was the former
military ruler of Nigeria, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, and that her American friends
included politicians like Mr. Jefferson of Louisiana”.
