How Tinubu Lost All His Money In U.S by SalamRushdie: 9:00am On Jan 11, 2022 |
heavyweight in Nigerian politics. The two-time Governor of Lagos State and National Leader of the All Progressive Party can be said to have seen it all and done it all when it comes to politics in Nigeria. In 1993, under the Ernest Shonekan’s Interim Government, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu was still an upcoming political figure. He was mainly based in the United States and carried out most of his activities from there. It was also in that year that he was indicted for Cocaine, Heroin and Gun crimes which led to the forfeiture of an estimated amount of $460,000 and some $1,400,000 cash. The details of the suit against him had it that he was identified as a bagman for two Nigerian Heroin movers who operated out of Chicago and Hammond, Indiana. They were Adegboyega Mueez Akande and Abiodun Agbele, Akande’s nephew, who was exposed to law enforcement after selling White Heroin first to Lee Andrew Edwards, another dealer later jailed for trying to murder a Federal Agent, and then to an undercover cop. An IRS Special Agent, Kevin Moss had brought the information that Akande had run the White Heroin ring in the late 1980s until 1990 when he handed off the United States arm of the business to his nephew, who had arrived in 1988. Akande then returned to Nigeria but continued to oversee the operation from there with the help of others at home and in the United States, including his relatives. One of the individuals identified in his cartel by Moss was Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, then a Chicago State University-educated accountant working as a treasurer for Mobil Oil Nigeria Ltd, a subsidiary of energy giant Mobil Oil, which was still a few years shy of its famous merger with Exxon in 1999. Bola Tinubu had given differing accounts for his wealth to Moss which had ultimately led to the money being seized by the prosecuting panel with the case. Details of the suit read: ‘According to the Verified Complaint for forfeiture in case No. 93 C 4483 which was filed on July 26, 1993, before the Hon. Judge Nordberg of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, the United States Government urged the Court to order the forfeiture of funds in accounts Nos. 263226700 held by First Heritage Bank in the name of Bola Tinubu, funds in accounts 39483134, 39483396, 4650279566, 00400220, 39936404 and 39936383 held by Citibank N.A in the name of Bola Tinubu and funds in accounts 52050-89451952,52050-89451952, 52050-89451953 held by Citibank in the name of Bola Tinubu because there was probable cause to believe that the funds in Tinubu’s bank accounts represented proceeds of narcotics trafficking or were monies involved in financial transactions in violations of 18 U.S.C, sections 1956 and 1957 and therefore, was forfeitable to the United States Government.’ However, in a bid to defend ownership of the funds, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu averred in Court that the funds belonged to himself, his wife, K.O Tinubu and his surrogate mother, Alhaja Mogaji and warranted that they had an exclusive right, title and interest to the funds.

Amotolongbo: They didn't dig out the fact that Asiwaju Tinubu is a First Class Accounting Graduate who went on to practice and rose to the pinnacle of his career at a MNC before he joined politics. Full biography of Bola Ahmed Tinubu FULL NAME: Bola Ahmed Adekunle Tinubu DATE OF BIRTH: 29 March 1952 (age 69) OCCUPATION: Accountant, Politician MARITAL STATUS: Married INTRODUCTION Bola Ahmed Tinubu was elected Senator for the Lagos West constituency in Lagos State, Nigeria in 1993, he also was elected governor of Lagos State (1999 – 2007). He is said to be among Nigeria’s most successful politicians ever. He is currently the national leader of the ruling party in Nigeria, All Progressive Congress (APC). EARLY LIFE AND BACKGROUND Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was born in Lagos, Nigeria to the illustrious Tinubu Family of Lagos State. He attended Richard Daley College, Chicago Illinois, where he earned himself a place in the honors list of the College. He subsequently proceeded to the Chicago State University, Illinois where he obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration (Accounting and Management). During his undergraduate years, he was honored with the Outstanding Student’s Award, The University Scholar’s Award and the Certificate of Merit in Accounting and Finance. On his arrival in the U.S. in 1975 and with the support of an ever-adoring mother, this courageous youth, faced with an unflinching zeal to succeed, took on such menial jobs as dishwashing, night-guard and cab-driving to see himself through the initial difficulties of school at the Richard Daley College, Chicago, Illinois. The brilliance of this young Nigerian showed in his ability to make the honours’ list of Richard Daley College. He subsequently transferred to the Chicago State University, Illinois, graduating with honours in 1979 and earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration (Accounting and Management). During his first year in Chicago State University, young Bola was given the rare privilege to partly teach other students of his Faculty remedial tutorial classes. Most of his colleagues and contemporaries at the university attributed their improved grades to his tutorial lectures. Throughout his undergraduate years, young Bola was on the Dean’s List and was honoured with the Outstanding Student’s Award, the University Scholar’s Award and the Certificate of Merit in Accounting and Finance. He was also awarded the prestigious Sumna cum laude for scoring 3.54 out of possible 4.0 GP. With his successful academic profile, young Bola contested and won his first political election as the President of the Accounting Society of the institution in his final year at the University. Upon graduation with honours and several awards, Bola Tinubu cut his professional teeth at the American-based Arthur Anderson, Deloitte Haskins and Sells (now called Deloitte Haskins and Touche) and GTE Service Corporation – the largest Communication and Utility Company in the United States of America. Meanwhile, at Deloitte Haskins and Sells, the young and professional Bola broadened his experience by participating in the auditing and management consultancy services of General Motors, First National Bank of Chicago, Procter and Gamble, International Harvester, GEC and other Fortune 500 firms. They should continue, they are burial ground diggers and they will be digging while Asiwaju Tinubu gets more Nigerians to vote him into Aso Rock. God bless Asiwaju Tinubu and may God bless Nigeria forever. 4 Likes

Will president Buhari want to stain his renowned integrity by handing over power to such a character ? meth Lord all the way in America ? President Buhari should just imagine how CNN will address him in 2023 ex president Muhammadu Buhari has handed over power to his friend and ex drug lord....... No, Buhari has a trick up his sleeve, he won't allow anybody disgrace him like that and his decision will have popular support. I trust him on this one ![]() |
