If you are Yoruba and you support this man and his group of murderers of unarmed children then you are the biggest problems we have in Yorubaland. And you people need to go. Have you changed tone from accusing other tribes who this man’s son is married to? Many sick people like you who follow blindly and are being used to commit atrocities. Look at yourself and look at all who you follow stands for before you insult your ancestors. Shame on you!

I have seen his act and I have seen his feeling of arrogance because people like you, look away because of coins. Then he begins to feel like a Demi god. Do I wait until he kills my children and laughs on TV before I speak? So other tribes don’t insult you. Well I am sure you don’t have children. Eni to ko ba ni nkan ko le mo iyi nkan. Even Tinubu knows the worth of his own children that’s why he brought one to laugh at us. Shame on you again! Rubbish comment!
Come to think of it, Tinubu is not the Grand Commander of the Federal Republic of Nigeria(GCFRN) neither is he the chief of amry staff nor commander so how can he give order to Nigerian army?

If you could remember at the early stage of the protest fingers was pointed at the same Tinubu as the sponsor of the protest. Let us be logical about this how come the allege sponsor of the protest will went ahead and order soldiers to shoot at those he sponsored? Point your finger directly at the presidency and not Tinbu

what evidence are you having that Tinubu was the mastermind behind the shootings at Lekki shooting? If you are having any evidences at your disposal then bring it out and let us see.

I am not a fan of Tinubu, but I can't help but envy his high level of composure and impeccable choice of words.

THE #ENDSARS PROTESTS; A FUNDAMENTAL LESSON IN DEMOCRATIC GOVERNANCE

I heavily grieve for those who have lost their lives or been injured during the period of these protests.

2. My deepest sympathies go to their families and loved ones for none should have been made to pay such a dear price. My career as an active politician spans nearly three decades.

3. In that time, I have seen many things as Nigeria has struggled, sometimes against itself, to undertake the often painful yet inexorable push toward democratic government accountable to, and protective of, the people.

4. Here, let me directly address the sharp point aimed against me. I have been falsely accused of ordering the reported deployment of soldiers against peaceful protesters that took place at Lekki on 20 October 2020.

5. This allegation is a complete and terrible lie. I did not order this or any assault against anybody. I would never want such a vile thing to happen nor did I have any prior knowledge about this sad event.

6. It is my firm belief that no one should be harassed, injured or possibly killed for doing what they have the constitutional right to do in making their contribution to a better, more equitable society.

7. As a political figure, I am accustomed to people attributing to me all manner of indiscretions of which I have no knowledge and in which I played no role. I have usually ignored such falsities as the cost of being in the public eye.

8. This time, it is different. The allegation now levied against me is that I called on soldiers to kill my own people. This allegation is the foulest of lies.

9. The use of strong force against any peaceful protesters is indefensible, completely outside the norms of a democratic society and progressive political culture to which I aspire and have devoted my public life.

10. That people were angered by the reports of violence and death is acutely understandable.
Understandably outraged, people sought to hold someone accountable.

11. For various reasons, I became the most available scapegoat. Some people don't like me because they believe the false rumours uttered about me over the years. Some maligned my name because they hide ulterior motives & harbour unrequited political scores they intend to settle

12. A week ago, such people tried to bring enmity between me and the state and federal governments by contending I was sponsoring the protests.

13. When that did not work, they then sought to sow enmity between me and the people by saying I ordered soldiers to quash the very same protests they first accused me of organising.

14. My opponents have every right to oppose me politically but let them have the courage to do so in the open, above board and to employ facts not evil fiction in their efforts against me.

15. They have no right to slander and defame anyone with the terrible and vile fabrications now cast at my feet.

16. Those who have decided to hate me will hate me regardless of the truth. Again, they have the right to think as they may and I am not troubled by their unfounded animus. Today, I speak not to them. I leave them to the workings of their own conscience.

17. The slander aimed at me is based on the untruth that I own the toll gate concession. The hate mongers prevaricate that I ordered the Lekki assault because the protests had caused me to lose money due to the interruption of toll gate activity.

18. I ask people to thoroughly investigate the matter of my alleged ownership of the toll gate. By seeking facts, instead of being swayed by gossip, you will find I have no ownership interest or involvement in the toll gate.

19. At bottom, the toll gate is a public asset. If it is reopened, revenues should be donated to the confirmed victims of the Lekki attack as well as to other identifiable victims of police brutality in Lagos.

20. Let government use the money to compensate and take care of those who have lost life or limb in the struggle for all citizens to go about the quiet, peaceful enjoyment of life without fear of undue harassment at this or that checkpoint.

21. On the other hand, I am, indeed, a promoter and financial investor in The Nation and TVC. It was widely known and circulated through social media that certain malevolent elements were going to take advantage of the situation to attack the Nation newspaper facilities & TVC.

22. These elements, mostly hirelings of my political opponents, wreaked their havoc and destroyed those buildings and facilities and I thank God that the employees of these two media institutions managed to escape largely unharmed.

23. There is no rationale that can adequately explain why I would order soldiers to repel peaceful protesters from the toll gate where I have no financial interest, yet, choose to do nothing to protect my investments in the Nation and TVC.

24. The good and creative people of Lagos have worked hard over the years to build it into the dynamic economic and cultural focal point it has become. Lagos has enjoyed over two decades of sustained, uninterrupted growth.

I believe you don't have power to deploy armies. But the Lagos State government/you have questions to answer regarding the removal of CCTV camera and the switching off of the street lights and the media board that light up the Lekki tollgate. It was a well planned move by the army and whoever that control that place.

Youth that have protested peacefully for almost two weeks? Two incongruent statements just to sound politically correct and please your slavemasters even with a dastard incident like the Lekki shootings & killings?

Well,Tinubu is one blinded by ambition and was ready to compromise anything to get it.You only harbour love, which borders on obsession, for your vain and lofty ambition to rule Nigeria.

Tinubu you will never become president, this Fulani govt will finish you politically before 2023, they will send you to jail to bring you down completely. You betrayed the whole south and supported blood thirsty Fulani cabal to power in 2015 and 2019 despite all of buhari’s antecedents. Greedy thieving man pocketing all of Lagos money.

First he started the protest

Then he ordered troops to stop the protest.

This is Nigeria where lies and fake news flows back and forth with no direction.


God Bless Asiwaju Tinubu

Long Live Asiwaju Tinubu

The Jagaban of the Federal Republic Of Nigeria.

He even became the Asiwaju of Lagos a revered Lagos title before Politics or 1999


**** They call him a Godfather we call him a leader with protege****

Not only was he part of formation of Alliance for Democracy NADECO, he formed AC, ACN and merged with CPC to form APC when PDP where hellbent on frustrating Yorubas

He is the Jagaban of borgu because of his assistant to many borgu and northern Politicians

A title giving to him by the late Emir

If supporting your Political party in your state
and region makes him Godfather then so be it

After all Fashola was just a struggling lawyer, Fayemi was a Ghanaian lecturer, Ambode was a civil servant, Aregbesola was an engineer , Oni of Ife was a real estate agent, Osinbajo was a Law lecturer in LASU and a part time lawyer when Tinubu used his Political platform to lift them




.[/quote]

Thanks. But Tinubu became Asiwaju of Lagos in year 2000. Oshibajo didn't lecture in LASU but UNiLAG. Fashola Chief of Satff after 2003 election and became a SAN in 2006. He was not a struggling lawyer. You can make your points without belittling others. It was Ademola Adele that introduced Tinubu to Lagosians in 1992 when he wanted to contest as a Senator and he won.

We love TINUBU but you guys often cause problem for him with your servitude behaviors

* Sir Obafemi Awolowo was vilified till death... His only offense being a successful Yoruba Politician , they concocted all lies and once he died they started showing fake love


* Chief Moshood Kashimawo Abiola was vilified till he lost his last breath, his only crime he as a Yoruba dared to aspire for the Office of the President of Nigeria

They have started with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu

Soon it would be Professor Yemi Osinbajo SAN

the aim is simple destroy Yorubas and it's political leaders


****They said he is was a nobody before 1999 ***


He as a Chicago trained accountant, worked at Deloitte Anderson Auditing Consultancy Chicago as a partner, he worked at PricewaterhouseCoopers consulting Chicago, he worked at General Electric, and his career in US spanned 20 years, with him opening Compass finance investment group IL Chicago, a company which FBI froze Agbele's 400k USD from and left 12 million USD in Tinubu's Citi Bank account as of Early 90s, he came back to Nigeria and joined ExxonMobil were he rose to become the Chief Financial Officer/ Treasurer

After this he was a cofounder of INTELs Logistics with Volpi and Atiku Abubakar, an investor in Oando PLC all before 1999

He even became the Asiwaju of Lagos a revered Lagos title before Politics or 1999
