Bola Tinubu And Gilbert Chagoury Alliance Proves Tinubu Betrayed Abiola by TylerDurden: 11:20am On Jun 16, 2019 |
Who is Gilbert Chagoury? Chagoury was Abacha's main international lobbyist, fixer and money launderer. Chagoury went into exile after Abacha was announced dead and was arrested and convicted in France for his role in helping Abacha stash his loot across the globe. He paid a fine as part of a plea bargain and never smelt a prison cell. Chagoury will later return to Nigeria in the early 2000's and from there reunite with his fellow Aso Rock courtier, Tinubu who at that time the good people of Lagos had deemed him fit to be their governor. Chagoury was one of the biggest contractors to Lagos State and also doubled as both Tinubu's launderer and international lobbyist. Obasanjo was at this time trying to recover Abacha's stolen loot and all investigations pointed to Chagoury who as I said earlier was instrumental in helping Abacha stash his loot. Obasanjo will then turn the heat on both Chagoury and Tinubu whom at this time were stealing Lagos money dry. With the help of Abacha appointed security and intelligence officers, Chagoury was tipped off and assisted out of Nigeria. Obasanjo will then turn on the heat on Tinubu and it was then Chagoury who was now in the US will lobby powerful members in the US DNC and Congress (notably Bill and Hillary Clinton) to mount pressure on Obasanjo not to go after Tinubu. It is important to state here that Chagoury lobbied the Clinton administration with a very generous donation to the Clinton Foundation to prevent US sanctions on the Abacha military junta following the murder of Kudirat Abiola and the execution of Ken Saro-Wiwa. With Tinubu now contributing a huge part of his loot to not only the Clinton Foundation and the election campaign office of some DNC senators and reps, Obasanjo could do little to get Tinubu arrested. This is where the frog Tinubu began flexing his weak muscles. Chagoury will later return back to Nigeria after Obasanjo left office and the looting spree continued but this time it had extended to virtually all the states in the SW which where now directly under Tinubu's control via selected stooges like Fashola in Lagos, Aregbesola in Osun and Fayemi of Ekiti. So it came as no surprise that after Buhari was sworn in, Tinubu will take Chagoury back to Aso Rock. Now how did this crooked alliance between the thief Tinubu and smart Chagoury? The alliance was cemented way back when Abacha was searching for an afonja to be his vice during his transition to civilian President. It was same Chagoury that recommended Tinubu! 4 Likes 1 Share |

Tinubu didn't betray anybody, let alone Abiola. When Abacha first took over, he did it with Abiola's support, based on the understanding that he would later hand over to Abiola. Part of the agreement/understanding then was that Abacha would appoint military governors while civilians would be their deputies. Tinubu lobbied to be one of the deputy governors (for Lagos), (with Abiola's knowledge and blessing). Abiola himself nominated people into Abacha's government then. Abiola fell for Abacha's deception thinking he would later restore his mandate. That is the context of the whole episode. Of course Abacha rejected Tinubu's bid, and subsequently arrested Abiola after Abiola realized he had miscalculated by trusting him in the first place. Abiola was arrested for declaring himself president and Tinubu and the others also became marked men. That is the right context. Op sounds like a frustrated hater of both Abiola and Tinubu. 18 Likes 4 Shares |

The word betrayal does not exist in politics anywhere in the world only in Nigeria. People will always fight for their own interests. That's how God created man. Btw, nobody can tell what agreement exists between Abiola and Tinubu before arriving at betrayal nonsense. Politics is a game of betrayal. Abiola used babangida against buhari, babangida betrayed buhari, babangida betrayed Abiola. Abiola used abacha against babangida. Abacha himself betrayed babangida. Only a fool would expect abacha, having gotten power to just hand it over to Abiola on a platter 7 Likes 1 Share |

TylerDurden: The same Tinubu has done the best thing to the memory of Abiola. Abiola lost it immediately babangida annulled the election. Nothing anybody could have done to right the wrong. Only a fool would expect abacha to just hand over power to Abiola. The best abacha could do was to release him from prison, which he did but Abiola refused. I don't blame abach for Abiola's woes. I only blame babangida and Abiola himself for not knowing when to quit. In political power play, it's every man for himself. 10 Likes |

schoolboij: Abiola was the one that prevailed on Abacha to take over from Shonekan on the condition Abacha immediately handover to him. Tinubu only came into the picture as an advocate of June 12 who was part of a delegation of Yoruba politicians elected into the National Assembly. Tinubu will then use NADECO membership as another ploy to negotiate appointment under Abacha. Later Chagoury will short list Tinubu to Abacha as his running mate in a move that was meant to appease NADECO and Yorubas. Tinubu accepted only for Abacha to die. You must understand that all those surrounding Abiola and fighting for June 12 where out to use their new found advocacy to both lobby for appointment and make money for themselves on the side. Why you may ask did NADECO and Yoruba elders and Obas requested not for June 12 mandate to be restored and Abiola released and sworn-in but rather demanded from Abdulsalmi that fresh elections be conducted while telling Abiola to not accept any pre-conditional release? With democracy restored, Tinubu and his band of vagabonds will use June 12 and Abiola's blood that they spilt to harass and blackmail Obasanjo claiming OBJ was enjoying their struggle to return Nigeria to democracy when every evidence exist that they were very much ready to ditch Abiola and support Abacha's transition to civilian rule. 4 Likes |

schoolboij: Unfortunately a lot of people like the Op commenting on NL about this subject were probably not even around then. I was in my late teens during June 12 period, and recall vividly how Abiola encouraged the masses to support Abacha. I particularly remember a conversation I was having with a group of folks at a newspaper stand right after Abacha overthrew Shonekan where we were debating whether Abiola's open endorsement of Abacha was a wise one. We felt that since Abiola supported his takeover then maybe he wouldn't be so bad. 7 Likes |
