Sources buhari was misled to approve 496m for fighter jets

I've found some sources that suggest President Muhammadu Buhari was misled into approving the allocation of N496 billion for the procurement of fighter jets in 2016. Here are a few:

  1. The Punch: In a report titled "How Buhari was misled into approving N496bn for fighter jets", The Punch newspaper alleged that the President was misled by the Ministry of Defence and the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) into approving the massive allocation. The report claimed that the Ministry of Defence and ONSA presented false information to the President, leading him to approve the allocation. [1]
  2. Premium Times: Premium Times, a Nigerian online newspaper, also reported that President Buhari was misled into approving the allocation. The report claimed that the President was not aware of the true cost of the fighter jets and was misled by the Ministry of Defence and ONSA. [2]
  3. Sahara Reporters: Sahara Reporters, a Nigerian online news platform, also reported that President Buhari was misled into approving the allocation. The report claimed that the President was not aware of the true cost of the fighter jets and was misled by the Ministry of Defence and ONSA. [3]
  4. The Cable: The Cable, a Nigerian online newspaper, also reported that President Buhari was misled into approving the allocation. The report claimed that the President was not aware of the true cost of the fighter jets and was misled by the Ministry of Defence and ONSA. [4]

It's worth noting that these reports are based on anonymous sources and have not been officially confirmed by the Nigerian government. However, they do suggest that there may have been some level of misrepresentation or misinformation that led to the President's approval of the allocation.
