According to Shehu, the completed declaration shows that his movable assets did not increase, at home in Nigeria or outside, and he did not add new bank accounts outside the only one he had at Union Bank, Kaduna. He has taken no loans and has no liabilities.

“The number of animals on his farm recorded a little decrease due to the number he gave out as gifts in the last four years.

Shehu also said the CCB has issued an acknowledgement receipt to the former president.

Recall that Buhari directed all outgoing officials to declare their assets.

“Nobody is excluded from declaring their assets. I expect everyone from the Vice-President downward to follow the system,” he said.
