The Untold Underrated Truth About Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu by ashleyman(m): 7:17am On Aug 25, 2020
First underrated fact about Tinubu is that *"HE'S ALSO HUMAN"*, everyone seems to be expecting him to outperform God.

BAT was a strong pillar and foremen that formed National Democracy Coalition (NADECO) that led to the return of democracy rule in 1999.

BAT put the country first as he played a major role in the stability of the democracy of Nigeria. He was one of the major reasons Chief Olu Falae didn't challenge the result of the 1999 election against Obasanjo. We all wanted to return to democracy, did you think we actually elected a former head of state?

BAT in his nature created platforms he has benefited from only once and that was his re-election as Governor of Lagos 2003 with Action Congress of Nigeria (A.C.N). BAT led to the formation of Alliance for Democracy (A.D), A.C.N and All Progressive Congress(A.P.C)

BAT was a senator under Social Democratic Party (S.D.P)before aligning with A.D under which he became Governor of Lagos State

BAT was the only one who saw and predicted the fall of a Yoruba Predominant Political Party, our original Afenifere, Alliance for Democracy (A.D) in 2003. Leading to the 2003 election, then Pres. Obasanjo lobbied A.D to join PDP to create a consensus presidential candidate (himself, OBJ), at that time South Western States were governed by grassroot indigenous men we knew as fathers, BAT singlehandedly kicked against it which led to the formation of Action Congress(A.C) which later on metamorphosed into Action Congress of Nigeria (A.C.N). All the Governors in Southwest except BAT lost their seats. The governors include
Segun Osoba of Ogun State
Ade Adefarati of Ondo State
Bisi Akande of Osun State
Lam Adesina of Oyo State
Niyi Adebayo of Ekiti State
After the Obasanjo betrayal and overhaul of the 2003 elections as Segun Osoba named it after the elections we had
Daniel Justus Olagbenga of Ogun State
Dr. Segun Agagu of Ondo State
Olagunsoye Oyinlola of Osun State
Otunba Adebayo Alao-Akala of Oyo State a
Ayo Fayose of Ekiti State
and that led to the end of a once glorious formidable south west. Ever since only Lagos has been flying.

In a bid of revenge from the then President, Olusegun Obasanjo, against court order refused to give Lagos a penny from Federal Allocation, in that time, BAT raised Lagos IGR from a little over #600m to #20billion he handed over to his successor, BRFashola.

This single achievement was lauded by a host of African Nations and that led King
Halliru Dantoro of Niger State to confer BAT with *"JAGABAN OF BORGU"* which means "Leaders of Warriors". Lagos State unanimously gave him the ruling power also when he was conferred with *"Asiwaju of Lagos"* which means *Custodian of everything Lagos* so if you think BAT would lose Lagos in 2023, its better you make another wish.

BAT has made more successive men and leaders (how they turned out is their personal cross) than 90% of the political parties in Nigeria. (Just Google out list of Lagos State appointees between 1999-2003, then Google each one of them personally, you'll be surprised what they achieved through BAT).

Thanks for reading!

Lagos IGR was not Tinubu's making. Lagos had been commercially blessed from time immemorial.

Should you not be ashamed of yourself? All the things written are factual and proven reality. Yet all that comes to your mind is "Chicago drug baron".

I really pity you guys because nothing can overcome your genetic flaw of blind hatred of others.

This terrible shortcoming will always see you guys fail and fall short in aspects of life that matters the most like politics, leadership of diverse people and communities and the development of the most eqalitarian and tolerant society possible.

Some people are so excited about Eko Atlantic, let me inform you,if you have no easy access to Ikoyi and banana island,you will only see Eko Atlantic on Channel evening news.

Ignorant statements about Lagos is how you know Omo yeebos who have never set foot in Lagos but cannot stop commenting about the State.

What does Ikoyi or Banana Island have to do with Eko Atlantic? Why can't you people just be happy with your ala Igbo? Don't you have enough proof worldwide, be it Accra or Cape Town, that your covetousness of the properties and land of others is loathed?

The city adjoins Victoria Island district of Lagos city, and the Phase 1 area of Lekki to the north, while the entire Western, eastern and southern borders is a coastline.

Does all those things written absolve Tinubu of being a common drug peddler?

I think the one to be ashamed here is you,supporting and singing the praises or a common drug peddler, imagine how the comity of Nations will be looking at Nigeria.

Obviously you all are the ones shameless.

Buying up sixty percent of Lagos lands and establishing intimidating successful businesses is that your definition of failure?

For me what I see as failure is one hungry miscreant singing the praises of a Chicago drug Baron and common criminal just to get crumbs from him. That's the absolute definition of failure.

You're a fool. A civilian bravely fought Jack boots dictatorship of the biggest black nation on Earth and even went into exile for the rights of Nigerians to vote the leaders they want, rather than men with guns force themselves on the people, and the above nonsense is all you can contribute. Tinubu personally sacrificed so that what is going on in Mali today is not the lot of Nigeria.

Your bigoted parents poisoned your mind real good. Go ahead and poison the minds of your kids too. An objective, untainted, unbiased and positively inquisitive mind is one of the best tool one generation can bestow the next. Clearly you Igbos don't understand this.

Continue hating on BAT blindly while ignoring his millions of achievement that mark him out as a very special and outstanding Nigerian politicians. One of the very best ever. We understand. You are Igbo and blind hatred of others is your thing.

Most of you guys just come online and regurgitate rubbish. I believe you are a Yoruba, tell me how Tinubu became an enemy of Oduduwa and how you think he made Lagos stagnant for decades.

Firstly, when MKO issue came up and the issue of Abacha tyranny, this same Tinubu came to the Yoruba and Nigeria aid by bankrolling the movement that frustrated the military government and inturn position the Yorubas back to the spot. The aftermath of that struggle led to Obasanjo presidency.

In terms of SW politics, Tinubu was the only one who held sway in 2003 when Obasanjo with his PDP swept all the states in the west through his plot. Not that PDP members are not Yorubas, but the caliber of governors the PDP gave the SW are mediocre and they only played their usual chop I chop politics to the detriment of the Yoruba populace.

Now check the caliber of governors, Tinubu ACN gave to the SW and compare them to the PDP governors we had:
Ajimobi - Akala/Ladoja
Aregbesola - Oyinlola
Amosun - Gbanga Daniel
Fayemi - Fayose
Mimiko (Tinubu helped him although he was in LP)/Akeredolu - Agagu
Fashola

As a Yoruba, can you compare these ACN guys with the PDP in terms of governance? What then is the sin of Asiwaju against the Yorubas?

Moreso, Tinubu is not like Awolowo because he is not the premier of the whole Yoruba states, he was just a governor in Lagos and the leader of the ACN/APC party. Bode George has been the leader of PDP in the SW for a while, can't you guys also put the bulk of the blame of Bode's neck?

If you say Tinubu installed the ACN governors, they have delivered compared to their counterpart in the SW PDP who were installed by Obasanjo/Bode George and etc.

Below is the IGR of Lagos in 1999 and when Tinubu left in 2007. He increased the IGR to over 780%, and made sure he gave the people of Lagos Fashola who in turn performed better to position Lagos as the leader in terms of development in Nigeria.

If you think Lagos was what it is because of the FCT that was there till 1991, them compare the GDP of Abuja and Lagos now and you will understand why you need to keep shut and stop behaving like nuisance online by regurgitating the rubbish of Tinubu being an enemy of the SW.

Most of you guys on here make me sick by not being able to think for yourself and falling for the rubbish being propagated by the real enemies of the Yorubas. They have always hated leaders that are pro-Yoruba. They hated Awolowo, hated Abiola, now they are hating on Tinubu.

If you're as intellectual as you write, you should know that these allegations are baseless and birthed out of hate. Even then President Jonathan used 2years to investigate BAT with EFCC, and he was vindicated.

It's time you stopped blaming people who you have even crossed paths for the reasons for your slow progress or standard of living. Just try to better yourself. And BAT was already a Director at an Oil company before going into Politics
