This is good for Democracy. Nice one.
Some of these traditional rulers are stark illiterates, uncivilized, uncultured and inhuman. They shouldn't be allowed close to the corridors of power

You are flesh and blood.

A man who eats, poops and wakes up every morning with a smelly mouth.

Who are you to oppress others when you can go to sleep tonight and be carried out on a mortuary stretcher tomorrow morning?

Who are you to even threaten your fellow man with life and death?

People too do.

That's the first step.
Strip him of all paraphernalia of office, then have him arrested by the law enforcement agencies for proper prosecution.
.
The ex-Oba is most likely not coming back to the throne.

NB: Nairaland used to be the go-to site for breaking news in the past but not anymore. This suspension has been announced since yesterday.

Festus Keyamo Defends Tinubu From Drug Trafficking, Says Tinubu Mistakenly Shared Flats With Drug Lords

The Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Mr Festus Keyamo, has distanced the All Progressive Congress presidential candidata, Bola Tinubu, from being a drug baron who was involved in the traffic of narcotics in the United States.

Keyamo, who also doubles as APC Presidential Campaign spokesperson, noted that the former governor of Lagos State only shared a block of flat with drug barons about 30 years ago in the US.

His reaction is coming following documents of a Chicago District Court indicting and convicting Tinubu of drug dealings and money laundering in 1993.

The document which emerged online two days ago, described APC standard-bearer as a drug baron, adding that Tinubu entered a plea bargain, leading to the forfeiture of his assets to US authorities in 1993

It was also pointed out that Tinubu forfeited the sum of $460, 000 dollars in his bank account at First Heritage Bank to the US government.

Speaking on Wednesday on Channels TV, Mr Keyamo dismissed such claims, insisting that Tinubu was linked to drug peddlers who were his neighbours.

He said: “What happened was that Tinubu went to open an account. The address which he used in opening the account was the address used by these people. I think some blocks of flats. Maybe, he was happy to be in that block of flats too.

“So, they now link it that the other people they were investigating for narcotics are in the same address used by Asiwaju to open that account.’’
