Tinubu worked for American companies Arthur Andersen,
Bola Tinubu was an executive with Mobil.
His political career began in 1992 not 1999, when he was elected to the Nigerian Senate representing the Lagos West

Top executive in Mobil, what was his position? Na you guys are holding brief for Tinubu, but do you that Diaziani was an Executive Director with Shell, so she may have acquired all that still from being a top executive, that is what we call top executive, not the Tinubu type

Tinubu acquired all of the above and many more not listed after he became Governor of Lagos State, first in 1999 and won his second term in 2003. He remains Governor Emeritus of Lagos, controlling the State’s treasury through his protege Governor Fashola.

As much as I agree with you that he got all this within the said period, he invested most of the money building business institution that engages thousands of people. Take for instance, Alpha beta, Lagos made less than 15billion a year when he became governor. He started a structured firm that is expert in tax collection. Today through that structured system, Lagos is making average of 240billion a year. Other states throng to Lagos to learn. If you make 5 naira and I tell you I can make 100 naira for you but I will take 15% of what I generate for you, what is wrong with that. Tinubu is a solution provider not just a politician. I respect him. Like him or hate, he will always be in the history of this country.

What are we even talking about here? That it is ok for one to still and irrespective of where you invest the money makes you the bad person? That's is wrong a thief is a thief whether you steak and invest in Nigeria or abroad a thief still remains a thief and they all should be punished for it, it shouldn't be selective, that is my stand, I am not saying those that stole during GEJ administration should be made to answer for it, but it should include the others from other parties.

IF you are an unbiased viewer, and you read some of the comments on this thread, you will agree with me that what has held project Nigeria back over the decades is injustice and lack of equity encompassed in an all consuming evil that is HYPOCRISY.....not corruption.
