Presidency Withdraws Statement On Tinubu As First African Leader To Ring NASDAQ by ogododo: 6:11pm On Sep 22, 2023
The presidency has apologised for a claim that President Bola Tinubu was the first African leader to ring the bell at the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (NASDAQ).

On Tuesday, shortly after performing the act, a statement released by Ajuri Ngelale, special adviser to the president on media and publicity, claimed Tinubu as the “first African president ever to receive the honour”.

However, contrary to Ngelale’s claim, Jakaya Kiwete, former president of Tanzania, rang the NASDAQ closing bell in 2011.

In a statement on Friday, the presidency said the error was “deeply regretted”.

“We inadvertently referred to President Bola Tinubu as the first African leader to ring the bell at NASDAQ on Wednesday in New York, based on the information provided by a third-party event organiser.


“We have since found out that this information was/is incorrect as a former African leader has indeed had the privilege. This error is sincerely regretted,” the statement said.

It was a bait we set for the scallywags and as we predicted, they took it. Hahaa.

I dedicate “I'm A Boss” by Meek Mill to His Excellency, Senator, President Bolanle Ahmed Tinubu GCFR.
Great jam!

Morons who are always quick to dish out statements in a bid to continue to feed and oil their failing propaganda machine.

UAE visa ban lifted: That was a lie.

Tinubu is the 1st African leader to ring the NASDAQ bell: Another lie

No be bait anything. It was a mistake by the person that issued it. They have deeply regretted it & have withdrawn the claim.

I think it's now beyond clear that these Yoruba people are out to defend tinubu regardless of how foolish it seems

This is for those buying their "give him time gimmick"

These people don't mean well for this country, defending the undefendable

Still the first Nigerian President to do so.
Still an achievement.

But it doesn't reduce the price of Garri anyway 😂

Ajuri Ngelale probably wanted to add ringing that yeye bell as an achievement before he was busted.

In any case, I like that he was courageous enough to apologize. Lai Mohammed would never apologize.
