During his visit in Ghana today,
President Buhari said he has so far
declared his assets four times, for the
four different times he has had cause
to serve Nigeria in various
capacities.
“I recall that in 1975 when late
Murtala Mohammed became the
Head of State, we were lined up –
governors, ministers, members of
the Supreme Military Council.
Officials of Ministry of Justice were
brought and every individual was
made to declare his assets.
All Heads of States and Government,
governors, ministers, permanent
secretaries have to declare their
assets because it is a constitutional
requirement.
I have declared my assets four
times. When I was governor in
1975, I declared. After being
Minister of Petroleum and as a
member of Supreme Military
Council, I declared.
When I was Head of State and now
as a President, I have also declared”
he told journalist at his joint press
conference with Ghanaian
president John Mahama.
