'People have asked, 'how is it that the president used Justice Onnoghen’s asset declaration form to prove his corruption and proceeded to sack him, yet the president himself has not publicly declared his own assets as he promised during his campaigns?''

• Says no sane citizen ready to die for rudderless NigeriaThe Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Most Revd. Matthew Hassan Kukah, and the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, yesterday traded words over the refusal of President Muhammadu Buhari to declare his assets publicly.

In his reaction, Adesina said Buhari never promised to declare his assets publicly, adding that the president had not broken any law by not doing so. “In 2015, he made his assets public, in 2019, he had declared, he has chosen not to go public, he has not broken any law. So, please let’s not continue to repeat what is untrue.”

“It is the story of a young girl’s journey through life, from being a Catholic girl to a Muslim; from being born of a Tiv family in Benue State to becoming a matriarch in Tangale family from Gombe; from a police officer who was the best recruit in 1967 to becoming an assistant inspector general of police, who also became a lawyer”, she said.

The seminarian was killed by kidnappers while his three colleagues were freed by about three weeks ago “Nigeria needs to pause for a moment and think. No one is more than the President of Nigeria, Major General Muhammadu Buhari who was voted for in 2015 on the grounds of his own promises to rout Boko Haram and place the country on an even keel.
