Buhari's New Inauguration Car Worth N280m Not N61m - Dailynigerian Says by References: 10:22pm On May 29, 2019 |
President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday appeared in a new 2019 Mercedes-Maybach s650 bullet-proof car, which an expert says it is worth at least N280million. In 2018 budget, N907m was earmarked by Mr Buhari for a phased acquisition of new vehicles and spare parts in the presidential fleet during the year, while in 2019 budget the president set aside N843 million for purchase and maintenance of motor vehicles for the year. An online newspaper earlier on Wednesday put the price of the car, which they erroneously described as 2019 Mercedes-Benz S-Class S 560, at $170,000 (N61million). But an exotic car dealer who had previously supplied vehicles to the presidency spoke to DAILY NIGERIAN on the condition of anonymity, saying the car is 2019 Mercedes-Maybach S650 bullet-proof. According to him, if the car is factory armoured, it could cost up to $1million (N360million) as it is not a base model. “Even if the treatment (installation of bullet-proof glasses/panels) is done in the aftermarket, the price for a customised version like that will be around $800,000,” said the expert. “In the aftermarket, the cost of installing bullet-proof for that type of vehicle is around N80m. These kind of vehicles are insanely expensive. Even the wheels alone can cost up to $30,000 each.” He told DAILY NIGERIAN that an order for a new Mercedes-Maybach S-Class was placed by former President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015 at the cost of $280million after some defects were detected in the armour of the 2014 Mercedes-Benz s600 he was using. “If the price at that time was N280m, how much do you think it will cost today, considering the prevailing exchange rate?” He said with Mr Buhari’s appearance in the new vehicle, it is apparent the president had dropped the defective 2014 Mercedes Benz s600 bequeathed to him by Mr Jonathan. The expert however said it is unclear whether the order was cancelled or a fresh one was made by Mr Buhari, who initially insisted on using it despite the defect. According to him, when Mr Buhari was first sworn-in as president in 2015, he placed embargo on purchase of new vehicles for the presidential fleet. “The embargo had to be lifted because of the vehicles inherited are either not mechanically sound or had issues with their security,” said the source. He added the presidency also purchased a new bullet-proof BMW 7 Series to complement the president’s staff car. According to a review by caranddriver.com, the 2019 Maybach S-class cars have 621-hp twin-turbo 6.0-liter V-12 engine, which provides “effortless motivation”. “They are best enjoyed from the rear seat, where passengers can stretch out and relax on hot-stone-style massaging leather recliners and enjoy the Burmester audio system while an atomizer fills the cabin with one of Maybach’s five signature fragrances,” a review by Drew Dorian of Buyer’s Guide said. “The Maybach models ride on a wheelbase that’s 7.9 inches longer than the Benz-branded S-class cars and nearly all of that extra length is dedicated to the rear seat to create an extra-spacious environment. That’s not to say that the front seat isn’t luxurious. “The driver and front-seat passenger are treated to most of the same luxuries—including the massaging seats—and the dashboard’s dual 12.3-inch digital displays provide access to the car’s infotainment system. “A host of driver-assistance features are available including an adaptive-cruise-control system that uses navigational data to slow the car down in preparation for corners and an automatic lane-change feature that watches for gaps in traffic and merges the S-class when it’s safe to do so.” https://dailynigerian.com/buhari-launches-n280million-mercedes-maybach-s650-at-inauguration/ 4 Likes

But the shameless Brown-roof media were quick to white-wash the obvious financial recklessness of the APC government. We all know that Mr. President's self-acclaimed integrity is just a charade. Buhari is a criminal vagabond and a con-man. An old, sly fox. Nigerians will be amazed at the massive looting being orchestrated by this present administration when they're finally out of the scene. 151 Likes 17 Shares |

a leader is often judged on his ability to walk his talk... it is not out of place for the president to use a vehicle worth N280m or higher... he is the president & fact remains that Nigeria is quite unsafe... however, when the leader keeps shouting on how prudent he is, how simple he is, how others are wasteful because they want good things & other issues that give the impression that he is a humble man, then such expenses can be called into question because it is at variance with the man's self stated ideals... a bullet proof Peugeot or Innoson vehicle would have been a better choice for a man who continually preaches simplicity & using home grown/made resources... 97 Likes 13 Shares |
