Erm, the new First Lady wore a N10m watch for her official portrait?

My hand is not in this one o....lol. I found the allegation on The Breaking Times. Read what they wrote below...
Investigations by Breaking Times on Monday revealed that Aisha Buhari, wife of the President of Nigeria wore a Cartier Baignoire Folle 18-Carat White Gold Diamond Ladies Watch that cost £34,500 to President Buhari’s inauguration on Friday, May 29. The equivalent of this at the current CBN foreign exchange rate of N303 to £1 is N10, 453, 000.
The Cartier Baignoire Folle 18-Carat White Gold Diamond Ladies Watch comes in a case made of rhodiumised white gold set with brilliant-cut diamonds. On the side of the case is an octagonal crown set with a diamond. The case is 44mm high, 35mm wide and 10mm thick and is covered by glare-proof sapphire crystal glass.

President Muhammadu Buhari was elected riding on the wave of strong anti-corruption, integrity and pro-masses sentiment. This shocking extravagance by Mrs. Buhari runs contrary to earlier indications that the Buharis are modest and the President, a pastoral farmer with 150 cows, barely raised the money to pay for his presidential nomination form.

I wonder why people are defending her, the likes of bonairo and aboki, were una dey. Even if someone gave her as gift for favour its corruption. The price of that watch can send 100 kids to school, the price of that watch can be help build 50 small scale biz. Change here we come! Thank u linda for this. After all wen linda was critizing GEJ una no complain so why complain for MB own . I see APC can't stand the heat of criticism,and propaganda , but they can do it to other people. These na una turn to get lashed.

If she is a very successful business woman, why was the husband looking for money to buy his form? She cld ve bought the form for the husband abi?

Instead of her to spend the money on etiquette training to learn how to stop turning her head 360 degrees.. she used the money to go to cartier regent street to buy wristwatch sunglasses. Mrs Buhari u need etiquette training like your life depends on it!

Only fools Will conclude she bought that with our(Nigerian's) money.

You hatters should mind your business ooooo, at least she brought the watch meaning she had before being 1st Lady / Wife of President. It shows us she has taste and has things, unlike patience who used our money for everything, yeye woman from no where. Even during the campaign except you hating fools were blind she wore gold and diamond jewellery nice small classy pieces not in you face and vulgar but she did wear her nice jewellery. All this shows she is a woman of taste and knows the good things, its not Nigeria's money she used to buy her things. First of all do you know if she is the daughter of a wealthy man? Do you know what her spas and beauty parlours were making or worth? She is an educated business woman and she is free to spend her money as she likes. I am very happy she wore her good things before her husband took the oath of service, that way you all can see a glimpse of her worth. Finally it could have been a gift from even people in the APC. Wetin be una own oooo go and look for your own money to buy yourselves good things and free the woman. You all did not shout about all the big big diamond and gold jewellery patience was wearing, the wife of a man that had no shoe abeg make una talk betta. This one no be talk. Madam First Lady / Wife of The President keep being you jare don't let idiots disturb you I know by God's grace this Government would make Nigeria better and all you hatters would be put to shame in a mighty way. Amen

Yes, she bought it before her hubby was sworn in but assuming it's an original, the reason why this has become a frenzy is because Buhari's campaign gave nigerians the impression he was the savior / redeemer for our country. That his wife has on 10mill watch, In aa third world country on her wrist alone is an indication of the kind of outrageously expensive taste she must have and portrays the Buharis to be hypocrites.

Anonymous said...

I took my time to read all the previous chat before deciding to comment. Firstly, the wrist watch is not fake, yes, it could be a gift
My only problem with this story is that BUHARI said he had a million in his account, and he could not buy the nomination form himself, den we see this, it makes u pause for a minute
BUT then, buhari is not poor, if only we Nigerians can think and forget about accusing parties and propaganda's. This same buhari, treats himself in the UK, THATS not cheap and his children or some reside there. he was once a former head of state so he was not broke.
my only problem, is the way he was painted as someone who is poor. and i personally think he should declare his assets so that we wud know the truth

Nigerians are very funny people. To some, nothing against Buhari is ever true. I pity this nation. Let's be objective. Firstly, we must confirm if the watch is the same with the one she wore. Secondly, we must confirm the value of the wristwatch. If the evidence is factual, then, we should know that we have entered one chance. Instead of us to face reality, we are busy arguing that they are trying to witch hunt the Buharis. The earlier we check mate this government the better we safeguard our future, I rest my case.

Linda, just because the naira is on a free fall, every item has to be calculated in today's exchange rate, no matter when the item was purchased, right? If I may ask those of you posting silly comments, did she use your money or government money to buy the watch? Many of you have serious problem and one of your problem is how to get money to buy recharge card to log on to this blog and express your anger, bitterness and frustration while the blogger makes more money buying designer bags, shoes and clothes and showing off on instagram.

In February 2012, one of my teachers at London School of Public Relations once told us how he bought his "Rolex" in China at the cost of about 50 pounds (about 15,000 naira). When he returned to UK and sought to know about its authenticity at the Rolex shop, they first said it's genuine as they couldn't tell it apart with the original. They then checked the serial number of the watch in their computer system and found out it's FAKE! The original one cost about 12,000 pounds (3.6 million naira), while the "China" cost £50 (about 15,000 naira). He said it was perfectly working for five years without glitch and everybody admired his "Rolex"!Much as I can't actually say Aisha Buhari's wristwatch is fake, you cannot also certainly tell me it's the original just by seeing it in the picture. Who did Aisha Buhari tell the cost of her wristwatch? Who did she tell she wore Cartier? Quite alright it looks like Cartier. But what if she is wearing a replica or "China"? I think the picture was released hours after swearing-in of her husband. Ask yourself how possible is it upon assumption in office, in hours, to steal N10 million and buy a new wristwatch? Even under profligate Jonathan administration, no any budget for the office of First Lady. If you want to criticize, it's good you arm yourself with facts. I see this criticism very puerile. The lowest point of criticism is criticizing what one doesn't understand.

Some people are reasoning from there anus. She worked hard for her money, it's her her money and let her spend it the way she want, and people saying that the money will sponsor 100 people in school, i think she will also go hungry and naked to sponsor ur kids with the money instead of purchasing the wrist watch for herself. Bad belle people. She can spend her money the way she want, what about people buying private jet and Linda bought SUV of 24-28 million,showing off in the instagram with the heading"TODAY'S LOOK" why didn't you used that money to train some poor Nigeria children in school.And some people asking why did she not reject the gift..go back to school to update ur brain if there any in that ur skull. You don't know how long she has that watch, i have some expensive chains, watches and shoes for up to 9 years now and they still look new because they are original.Political enemies at work to distract them. Sorry u failed.

She is from a very rich family. I heard Buhari married her from a very rich home. However, can we focus on more productive issues that can move Nigeria forward instead of this petty trivial issue? Linda grow up

I could remembered wen Linda just bought Range Rover sport or so with her hard earn money, it was a serious tlk of the whole country nd all sort. If she decided to buy what she like with her money without her hubby a president, I think is non of anybody biz. U don't need to be in power to be able to buy all of dis things depend on ur priority nd desires. Moreover, we all knw quiet well that this woman owns one of the biggest beauty coy in Abuja nd Kaduna. All this is just a distractions. U people shld better face reality nd tlk something meaningful.

That is why nigerians are blocked heads, no innovations aside pure water. You retards lack the point, if Baba Buhari said he has less than a million in his account and had to borrow 11 million from the bank for APC nomination form, abi his wife that can buy a watch worth 10 million couldn't lend him the money abi? the person that gave her this "gift" couldn't help raise the cash for APC form? couldn't she keep the gift at home and remain simple just to portray the " simple" and "humble life" they claim? Una Neva See Anything Yet.

Nawa for us o, Because she is the first lady she should not wear wristwatch. Do you know how much she earns even before she became the first lady. Pls let us think in a beta way. APC change, take it or lv it

I wonder for these bad belle ppl o. Its paining them d first lady can afford a 10m wristwatch, if its davido now they'll clap for him.

Shut up everybody who are in support of this thiefing government!!!
Few months ago, they were broke to the extent that they cannot afford the presidential form, they even have to borrow 1 million naira from an old woman...

How long will stupid Nigeria accept this lies called APC?

So, she has money and hide it from her husband? Nigeria will never stop to amaze me.

Unknown said...

I think u have a problem with ur sense of reasoning were it not the same family that borrowed money to uptain their normination form? Use ur brain nd not ur anus. Who re they fooling if she could donate drugs worth 130m nd buy wristwatch worth 10m then trust me we re yet 2 see nothing

Dear Linda,
Although i enjoy reading some of your posts I've noticed this past year that certain topics you post have become rather subjective and intended to incite rather than inform or at the very least entertain. This post is certainly one of them. The Buhari's have spent barely a couple of days in power yet you post a sensational topic designed to incite people negatively. I noticed this trend is common with your topics the past few months leading up the election. While you are quick to genuflect at GEJ for non-performance and handing over government, you have not been to kind with your words and topics when it concerns Mr Buhari. I do enjoy your blog but please have a check mechanism to reduce subjectivity. Finally, I would appreciate it if you would also check your posts on ethnic disagreements. Many of Chimamanda's posts and the like that have graced your blog only serves to encourage tribal friction. I hope I havent offended your sensibilities but please consider my words.
Many thanks.

Friends , don't believe anything you read now without verifying.AFTER MARCH 28th ELECTIONS, no news any more,every where is dry.Channels news of late is a confirmation of this dryness.
Journalists are looking for news everywhere, attempting to fabricate and create exciting news.

It is not unexpected !!

Who says Buhari is poor? a retired Army Gen. and past head of state..?. Common...are you not aware that every living former head of state receives an honorarium of over a million naira monthly beside his pension, which some good money. Ah ah... calling a man of that status poor is gross misunderstanding.
So apparently some Nigerians just lack adequate info.

Besides 27mil. for presidential nomination form no be change.

Haters, pro Jonathan and anti Buhari'sts, wishing and ardently expecting this new govt to fail, talking and insinuating vile remarks just to proof that Nigerians made a wrong choice. Don't continue to make yourselves enemies of this country, change ur mind and offer prayers for our dear nation and also support the new players as much as you can. If Nigeria fails and ur points proven, you will not be better for it but if she stands and make progress, we will all pride in it and thank God. The Nigeria YOU see is surely the Nigeria YOU will have.

She closed a supposed flourishing biz??? what does that tell you all??? which good manager or successful biz person does that?? She should have kept it running, one of her daughters or relative can run it, that biz if expanded can provide jobs to people as her hubby promised. Is this the people we are relying on??
