BUHARI TO GET FUNDS FROM ARAB DONORS by KEVIND: 6:28pm On Dec 29, 2014
The funds will come from Arab interest and countries.thats how Buhari have been funding his election Campaign since 2003. You think a poor man like Buhari make US believe he is can survive 4 consecutive presidential election in Nigeria.Buhari knows where and How to get
funds for his campaign.

Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Gen, Muhammadu Buhari, will soon receive some millions of dollars in funding from Arab billionaires who had assisted in funding his 2003, 2007 and 2011 campaigns.

It was gathered that former Oil Minister from Saudi Arabia, Ahmed Zaki Yamani, and some other Arab billionaires used a secret funding route to channel millions of dollars to Buhari’s campaign.

Information pieced together further revealed that the funds doled out between 2003 and 2011, helped build a vast network of think tanks,  supporters and groups working for a single purpose: To make Buhari President of Nigeria. 

It was also revealed that over the past decade some anonymous donors gave several hundreds of thousands in foreign currencies to bankroll the presidential bid of Gen. Buhari which flowed to the campaign through his trusted loyalist, who is embedded in the party.

A source in the know told our correspondent on condition of anonymity that the entire donation was done with a guarantee of complete secrecy for the donors who wish to remain hidden.

This was just as the former Saudi Arabia Minister for Petroleum and Mineral Resources, and another powerful Saudis were behind mobilisation of the funds with the intention to bankroll a movement to install an Islamic leader as head of government in Africa’s largest economy.

According to Professor Roberts, of the Institute of Arab and Islamic Studies, the donor’s main objective is the ascent of political Islam, which has been a crucial factor in the swelling and deepening ‘Islamisation’ of many Arab and non-Arab societies within the past three decades. From Casablanca, Algiers, Adamawa, Cairo, Kano, Kebbi, Khartoum, Damascus, Baghdad, Istanbul, Tehran, Jakarta, to Islamabad, the donors have provided huge funds to execute the agenda, typically moving from preaching and proselytizing to building mosques, schools and economic infrastructure, in many cases crisscrossing different countries.

“The swelling of political Islam cascaded over how vast segments of the northern youths in Nigerian societies identified themselves – not abruptly moving from the traditional national distinctiveness to broader Islamic identities, but merging the national with the Islamic.

“The characterizations neither conformed to a specific set of values nor converged round a unique and distinct body of morals,” he said.

According to him, “the overarching objective of almost all donor political Islamic groups is not only to attain parliamentary majorities or control presidencies, but to gradually Islamise their states – and their societies.”

Yamani became a close friend of Buhari in 1977 when the former leader was Federal Commissioner (position now called minister) for Petroleum and Natural Resources. 

Contrary to the make belief that Buhari is poor, more questions have been raised on how he was able to raise the financial chest to fund three presidential campaigns within a decade.

In 2011 when the merger between Congress for Progressive Change, CPC and Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN broke down, it was believed that initial funds from the Arab donors ensured that Buhari continued to run his campaign in Northern Nigeria with ease, despite his perceived austere posture.

As a political analyst based in Abuja, Malik Ibrahim puts it: “The funding of the Buhari campaign is becoming increasingly invisible to public scrutiny but constantly growing. The Buhari campaign team is increasingly getting money from sources that are anonymous or untraceable. There is no transparency, no accountability for the money. There is no way to tell who is funding them.”

In July 1982, Yamani founded Investcorp, private equity firm, with several other oil ministers and well-known financiers. The firm’s initial investments included Tiffany & Co, Breguet, a Swiss watch maker, Yamani, himself known to be a watch lover.

May be you don't know that part of $21b donated to Jonathan for his campaign equally came from Jerusalem because of the plan to Christianize Nigeria.

Soon, we'd hear "Buhari to receive campaign funds from ISIS". gringrin

They should also tell us who the 'secret' donors donated for in 2007 when the contest was between buhari and yar'adua(both muslims) since they(donor) donate for any muslim candidate who can bring islamization to Nigeria.

Jimi Agbaje Says Vote Jonathan or South South will make Nigeria Burn
Mr Agbaje said: "The Buhari of today is not the Buhari of 2007 or 2011 as he is operating on the steam of those who put him there for their own selfish purposes. We also have to appreciate the fact that the people in the south-south have the ability to shut the system down if their man is not elected.

"Remember that they have done it before. yes, it can happen in the north too but we have to ask ourselves which of the two scenarios we can survive best."
"Furthermore, Mr Agbaje warned that Niger Delta militants could shut the country's economy down if President Goodluck Jonathan was not returned to power next month. In February, Mr Agbaje will be running for Lagos State governor in the same elections during which President Jonathan will be up against General Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the governorship candidate warned of the consequences of not returning President Goodluck to office.
