Buratai Dubai House: Falana, Others Slam Army, Demands Probe by deantimes(m): 11:13am On Jun 28, 2016 |
PROMINENT Nigerians and groups have urged the Federal Government, particularly the EFCC to launch an investigation into the finances of the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai, over the purchase of $1.5m properties in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates. The Chief Of Army Staff and his two wives were reported last week by an online medium to have owned two properties in Dubai said to be worth $1.5m. Buratai said he's ready for investigation as he bought them with his earnings and business money. The National Publicity Secretary of Afenifere, Yinka Odumakin, in an interview with Punch, said Buratai should be probed over the allegation of the Dubai property scandal. He stated, “The defence the army put up for him is so silly to be believed outside the barracks. All the earnings of Buratai since he joined the army, if all were saved, cannot buy a house in Dubai, let alone two. “The army also exposed itself as a lying institution when it said Buratai was never in charge of procurement in writing. The investigation should make Buratai to let the country know that he did other businesses to buy the property in question so that the integrity of the anti-corruption war can be intact. “The house could only come legitimately through other businesses outside his pay. The savings from the salaries of any army officer in Nigeria cannot buy a house in Dubai.” Also, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Femi Falana, has slammed the Nigeria Army for defending Buratai over the Dubai properties. Falana said it was not the business of the Army to speak for Buratai on the allegations. He said since public offices require public trust, Buratai should submit himself to Code of Conduct Bureau and the anti-graft agencies to clear his name. He said, “Buratai should willingly invite the CCB, the EFCC, the ICPC to look into the matter. If Buratai was alleged to have unjustly purchased the houses, he has to come out to defend himself. He must show how the money used to purchase the houses was transferred.” But the Ministry of Defence had dismissed the controversies being generated by an online media report over the ownership of two properties by Buratai’s family in Dubai. http://.com/buratai-dubai-house-falana-others-slam-army-demands-probe/

Sometimes i want to believe that this corruption fight is not sectional but this government keep giving me reasons to think otherwise. Properties worth $1.5m and you tell us you worked for it doing what and what. Even the government rose to his defence. 2019 please come for there are decisions to make 2 Likes |

When people don see d winch dem from far dey shout, una say dem be wailers. See am na! Their selective corruption fight will be their own undoing. They will regret and wish they never bothered trying to make themselves out as more innocent and incorruptible or cleaner than others. It is better to play equally and apply same rules to everyone or stop the vindictive witch hunt. 4 Likes |

I'm with Falana on this. The Nigerian Army shouldn't have spoken for T. Y. Buratai. He should come out with his own defence. 2 Likes |

Who still takes this hypocritical, double-standard Femi Falana serious these days? If corrupt Burutai gives Femi Falana akara money he will accept it and quickly support him. May God continue to bless late Chief Gani Fawehimi;may his family and generations never lack the good things of life, AMEN. I will forever miss you Chief Gani Fawehimi 2 Likes |

$1.5m? The prices keep changing . . . I thought it was $420,000 by 2. Well, EFCC should do the needful, and Buratai can clear his name. |
