How Tinubu Turned Lagos Into A Family Business by SeniorMan715(m): 9:28pm On Oct 05, 2022
My fellow Yoruba brothers and sisters, Don’t be deceived into fighting someone’s personal battles disguised as an ethnic battle. They didn’t consider you a good enough Omo Yoruba, when they were doling juicy positions to their family and friends. We are only good enough to help them fight their personal battles. Being an Omoluabi doesn’t mean we shouldn’t use our heads (brains). Before you vote in the next general election, consider these: *Remi Tinubu (Wife):* Bola Tinubu made her a 3-term senator who represented Lagos Central at the Nigerian Senate. *Mrs Lola Akande (Sister-in-law):* She is Tinubu's wife’s sister. He made her the incumbent Lagos State Commissioner, Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Cooperatives. She is also a former member of the Lagos State House of Assembly. *Hon. Sunkanmi (Nephew):* the member of Lagos state House of Assembly representing Ikeja. He actually succeeded Mrs. Lola Akande. *Sade Tinubu-Ojo (Daughter):* She is the Iyaloja General of Lagos. Note, the Iya Oloja controls all monies and levies generated in all Lagos markets. Sade replaced Tinubu’s adopted mother as the Iyaloja. Technically, he made the position an hereditary/family position. *Oyetunde Ojo (Son-in-law):* Tinubu made him a member of the House of Representatives member in Ekiti State. He was sacked for using fake academic credentials in contesting. Ojo, an ex-parking attendant in London, is the husband of the Iya loja General of Lagos. *Seyi Tinubu (Son):* He was appointed as the emergency financial consultant to all parastatals and local governments in Lagos State. Seyi is also in charge of the Lagos advertising account. This makes him in charge of the billions of naira generated from all billboard adverts in Lagos. His convoy is said to rival that of a state Governor, *Fola Tinubu (nephew):* He is the Managing Director of Primero Transport Services Limited, a company owned by Tinubu. The company has the sole rights to operate BRT service in Lagos. *Akeem Muri-Okunola (His friend’s son/and his former PA):* He was recently was imposed as the Head of Lagos Civil Service against all civil service rules. *Akinola Benson (Personal Assistant):* He is the incumbent Commissioner for Establishment. *Jide Idris (His Cousin):* The three-term Commissioner and the incumbent Commissioner for Health is Tinubu's Cousin. *Bolaji Ariyo (former ADC):* The incumbent chairman of the Oshodi Local Government was also Tinubu's ADC. *Gbolahan Lawal (ADC):* The incumbent Commissioner for Housing (a two-term Commissioner) was ADC to Bola Tinubu. *Dr. Sikiru Tinubu (Cousin):* He is the MD of the Critical Care unit at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH) in Ikeja. The facility was built and equipped with state funds. It is now owned personally by Bola Tinubu. Dr. Sikiru Tinubu runs the outfit. It is run as a private unit and the proceeds are pocketed by the duo. The unit charges its users exorbitantly and most Lagosians can hardly afford to pay its high charges. Most of the revenue is derived from fees paid by the State Government for patients referred there by its General Hospitals. *Isiaka Gboyega Oyetola (Cousin):* Bola Tinubu installed his cousin Isiaka Gboyega Oyetola as the governor of Osun State.

Dear Op,


Thanks for your detailed expose`on the man, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.



But let's assume that despite having a Tinubu in your family, you still live in abject poverty.



How would you describe him?



Most highly influential politicians out there would rather see their siblings and other family members suffer than lend a helping hand.



Tinubu's "largesse" cuts across family ties.



The man has proved himself to be a destiny helper over the years as numerous evidences attest to this fact.




Again, he sees where others are blind.



He has a knack for creating wealth.



For any his near faultless creations,arising from his visionary reservoir, he gets a piece of the cake.




His policy is "monkey dey work, monkey dey chop and not baboons"



His current travails arose mainly from his Mu-Mu ticket!

Ode Buruku....you recieve 30k stipends, pay taxes to enrich one man and his family. You are been milked day and night by Tinbu and you still cannot see the big picture. There is extreme poverty and hunger un Nigeria and your are defending the indefensible.
