I’m Now Richer Than Politicians, Oil Moguls I Looked Up To – Burna Boy Boasts

Burna Boy, the world-famous Afrobeat musician, has revealed that he is now richer than most of the Nigerian politicians and oil tycoons he once looked up to.

He made this known in a post on his Instagram story on Saturday, while advising his followers not to underestimate those who are younger than them.

Revealing his financial status, the singer explained “Imagine growing up and only oil men and politicians were the ones really getting the real money followed by the G boys. Music wasn’t even in the conversation when money was the topic.

Burna Boy advised his followers not to look down on anyone because they could become tomorrow’s ELon Musk.

Despite Leaving $70bn in Nigeria’s Coffers, We Owe More Debt Now – Obasanjo

Former Nigerian President, Olusegun Obasanjo has expressed disappointment with Nigeria’s current debt size.
Obasanjo recalled he left the nation with about $70 billion, including a $45 billion reserve and $25 billion in a designated “excess crude” account.
The former President spoke on Thursday in an exclusive interview with Kayode Akintemi of News Central Television.
Obasanjo, who lamented the poor quality of leadership in the country, said his government met a debt overhang of close to $36 billion but reduced it to about $3.5 to $3.6 billion before leaving office in 2007.
His words: “I came in 1999 and met $3.7 billion in the reserve. And I have told you, we were spending $3.5 billion to service the debts. That’s what we had.
 
“By the time we left eight years later, with debt relief, when I came in, we had a debt overhang of close to $36 billion. By the time I left, with the debt relief and clearing what we had to clear, the quantum of debt that I left was about $3.5 to $3.6 billion from over or around $36 billion.
 
“At the same time, the reserve that was $3.7 billion when I came in went to $45 billion. At the same time, we had what we called “Excess crude”, which is what is in excess of what we budget and what we actually sell the crude. Normally, we are conservative in budgeting, we call it “Excess crude”. So, we had in it about $25 billion. When you add that to the reserve, we are talking about $70 billion.
 
“Now, the point is that I left in 2007. Today between 2007 and 2024, all that amount of money has gone; all of it. Not only that, but all the money they made all that period had gone. And today, we owe more than we owe when we came to government in 1999.”

I Did Not Want It – Obasanjo Reveals Sponsors Of Third Term Ambition

Ex-President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, has spoken on the controversy surrounding his purported ambition for a third term in office.

There have been claims that Obasanjo was nursing a third term as president, and the former vice president, Atiku Abubakar, also admitted to stopping the agenda.

However, in an interview with Kayode Akintemi on News Central Television on Thursday, Obasanjo said he would have gotten a third term if he had pushed for it but did not want it.

He attributed the report of nursing a third term to some governors who were secretly working towards extending their terms in office.

According to him, the governors believed that if he (Obasanjo) secured a third term, they would also benefit from an extended tenure.

Obasanjo noted that getting debt relief for the country was much more complicated than getting a third term, adding that his government could get debt relief for Nigeria when he was in office.

He said, “If I had wanted a third term, I would have gotten it. I didn’t want a third term. I know some governors working for this, believing that if I, as president, got a third, they would also get it.
