Pan-Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere, on Tuesday reminded President Buhari to make his assets declaration public, saying that the ongoing constitutional crisis created over the ‘illegal’ suspension of Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Mr Walter Onoghen, called for such.
Afenifere Leader, Chief Reuben F. Fasoranti, made this call in statement made available to the Tribune Online in Lagos, even as he also reminded the president of the pledge he made to the country that all his political appointees would only earn salaries and allowances as prescribed by the Revenue and Mobilisation and Fiscal Allocation Commission (RMFAC).
“The constitutional crisis created over the illegal suspension of the Chief Justice of Nigeria of Nigeria, Mr Walter Onoghen, over allegations of not fully declaring his assets has compelled Afenifere to remind President Buhari to make his assets declaration public.
“Then General Buhari in 2014 in a document titled, ‘I pledge to Nigeria’ also said that all his political appointees would only earn salaries and allowances as prescribed by the Revenue and Mobilisation and Fiscal Allocation Commission.
“He said, ‘I pledge to publicly declare my assets and liabilities, encourage all my appointees to publicly declare their assets and liabilities as a pre-condition for an appointment,” Chief Fasoranti said.

However, the Afenifere Leader noted that it was now four months to the end of the four-year tenure of President Buhari and this pledge had not been fulfilled, saying instead of doing what he pledged, even his aides had been giving all manners of untenable excuses in the last three and half years.
“It’s now 4 months to the end of the four-year tenure of Mr President and this pledge has not been fulfilled.
“Instead of doing what he pledged, Presidential aides have been giving all manners of untenable excuses in the last 3 and half years,” the Afenifere leader said.
According to him: “This is a moral burden as it is said that he who comes to equity must come with clean hands and that examples are better than precepts.
“A leader must not set for others standards that are very difficult for him to meet in the order of “do as I say and not as I do’.”
Fasoranti said the “jeopardy” of President Buhari anti-corruption war had really been one set of rules for the goose and another set for the gander, declaring that Afenifere, therefore, demanded that he “make his assets declaration form public so that Nigerians can hold him as a man of his words.”
“Such power of example sets the greater tone for good conduct in society than a thousand arbitrariness in the name of fighting corruption,” Fasoranti said, adding: “The true meaning of leadership is being able to lead by higher standards.”
I want this so called Afenifere to stop ridiculing Yorubas. Where were you people when PMB and PYO declared their assets?.
Afenifebi how many times would Buhari declare is asset.
Buhari hide his asset but expose asset of a sitting judge, is that fair play?
They are Tinubu stooge
WHY BUHARI MUST RESIGN !!!
1] 15 SANs Defended BUHARI On A Certificate He NEVER Had and There was no call for Buhari to Resign. Yet Buhari is fighting corruption!
2] Buhari has forged WAEC certificate on 2 different occasions; in 2015 and 2018, and there are no calls for buhari’s resignation. Yet buhari says he is fighting corruption. Is forgery not a crime? Is forgery not corruption? Why are there no calls for buhari’s resignation?

a. BUHARI HIMSELF IS ABSOLUTELY CORRUPT
b. BUHARI HAS NO INTEGRITY
c. BUHARI IS A CRIMINAL
d. BUHARI IS NOT QUALIFIED TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT
e. BUHARI HAS NO RESPECT FOR THE RULE OF LAW
f. BUHARI HAS NO RESPECT FOR THE CONSTITUTION OF NIGERIA
g. BUHARI HAS NO RESPECT FOR THE DEMOCRATIC INSTITUTIONS OF NIGERIA
h. BUHARI DOES NOT FOLLOW DUE PROCESS
BUHARI MUST RESIGN !!! His cabal must be disbanded!
NIGERIA CANNOT HAVE 2 CJNs
0. Buhari and his cabal have systematically and strategically destroyed nigeria’s democracy and it’s democratic institutions as recognized by our Constitution. Buhari has destroyed the fabric of our nation.
Nigeria will soon be no more if we allow Buhari to escape with this one too.
1. Suspension of onnoghen is illegal, unconstitutional, unapproved, dictatorial and a desperation to cling to power in 2019.
2. The judiciary is an arm of the governemnt, just like the Senate and the house of reps. If Buhari by prescription cannot remove or suspend the Senate president (though he attempted and failed, thanks to saraki’s ingenuity), cannot remove or suspend the speaker house of reps, why should it then be legal to suspend or remove CJN without obeying the rule of law and following due process?
3. Buhari was elected by the nigerian people. Buhari must be made to respect our democratic institutions. This is not a military regime. Buhari must respect our senate, house of reps and our judiciary. Buhari is killing our democracy and we are now sliding Into dictatorship. This cannot be tolerated anymore.
4. Buhari is NOT the constitution of Nigeria.
5. The constitution of Nigeria Is supreme and buhari Is not above the constitution of nigeria. The people of Nigeria elected Buhari as president and the constitution of Nigeria made him president. Buhari cannot ignore the constitution which made him president today.
6. We cannot have 2 CJNs. It is unconstitutional. There is no provision for 2 CJNs in the nigerian constitution. There is also no constitution crisis here. Onnoghen is still the CJN. His suspension by Buhari is invalid according to the Constitution. The constitution of Nigeria is very clear on this.
7. Appointment of acting CNJ is also illegal, unconstitutional and unapproved. The Nigerian constitution is also clear on the appointment of the CJN. Note that the appointed acting CJN is a former judge of the sharia court (I wonder when sharia became democratic….!)
8. President Buhari is an ELECTED president of the federal republic of Nigeria.
9. ELECTED president Buhari MUST:
i. OBEY THE RULE OF LAW
ii. OBEY AND FOLLOW THE CONSTITUTION
iii. OBEY THE APPEAL COURT which is part of an arm of government.
iv. FOLLOW DUE PROCESS
10. The establishment of these arms of governments and institutions in our democracy were intended to check the elected president and tame the excesses of the elected president, In order to prevent the elected president from becoming a dictator.
11. If these institutions fail to defend and preserve itself and our democracy, especially from the dictatorial tendencies of AN ELECTED president buhari, then Nigeria is already a failed state and the country can as well break up / divide.
Therefore, There is no need for the existence of a country called Nigeria anymore.
Buhari has killed, looted, caused hunger, pain, sufferings, persecuted many already.

What did pmb declare.
I don’t think Afenifere said so. That organization is made up of highly credible individuals, to say they forgot to remember Buhari and Osibanjo declared their assets and made it public on assumption of office as president and vise president. Buhari immediately stopped collecting military pension and all other monies as former head of state and ordered he be paid half of the salary of the president and commander in chief and called on NASS members to cut down their salaries/allowances. Vise president Osibanjo followed his leader and cut down his salary by half.And, the two have been collecting half of what of what they are supposed to earn as salary. Did I hear someone say it is unconstitutional?
Pdp club
For the second term in one tenure?
I guess you don’t know what is happening in Nigeria sir, Buhari never declare his asset he only said that in INEC form before election that he has a house in Kaduna and Kastina with a land in PH and 150 cows that’s all he never declare his assets to the public
This Badmus na bad mumu person.
Who be Afenifere?
Olatunji Olusola where in INEC form are candidates required to state their properties?
How much did Buhari medical treatment cost Nigerians? Has anybody care to ask?
