Tinubu Lied About Obama’s Invitation To Democratic Party Convention Says DNC by DidierKing: 8:35am On Sep 08, 2012 |
A USA based media outfit just reported that contrary to Bola Tinubu's claim that he was invited by Obama for the Democratic Party Convention, that he paid $5000 to obtain a generic invitation. The invitation was given to everyone who donated more than $5,000 to the Obama campaign the source disclosed. The media outfit had this to say about Tinubu: “This gentleman is not like your popular national icon, businessman Moshood Abiola, who was well-grounded and at home with many people in government and private sector. Americans don’t want to be dragged into the affairs of any country through personal preferences. The man probably did what he had to do in order to gain access to the convention ground.” The last sentence made me laugh. Please read the full report in the link below: No wonder he was taking a photo pose of himself all over the convention. But the guy na strategist sha o http://africanexaminer.com/tinubu0908 |

@Post Some Nigerians just continue to embarass themselves with their "I must feel among" syndrome. This is how some Nigerians in Nigeria started a political fund raiser for Obama during the last elections. The minute Obama won the presidential elections, he was quick to set the record straight and tell everyone that the Nigerians claiming to raise money on behalf of his presidential campaign are doing so on their own accord and that he has nothing to do with them. Now it's time for re-election and some Nigerians have started again trying to act more american than the americans themselves when the average american does not even give a slightest damn about Nigeria/Nigerians other than how to milk us dry of our resources and then dump u like a hot potato. See americans mocking us again. I wonder when we will have some dignity as a people and stop a55 kissing everything american. 8 Likes |

Fresh facts have emerged that Leader of the Action Congress of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu, paid $5000 to obtain the generic invitation from the Democratic Party campaign office, but claimed he was personally invited to attend by President Barack Obama as leader of Nigeria opposition. Obama, it has been revealed, did not personally extend what has been dubbed by Tinubu “a gold card invitation” to him to attend the Democratic party convention in Charlotte, North Carolina. contrary to claims by him and his aides. This is not the first time Tinubu has been enmeshed in controversy bothering on false claims. The controversy surrounding his academic qualifications, his claim of being a Certified Public Accountant, and discrepancy in his age records are still fresh in memory. According to investigations by reporters of a United States based online medium, Sharpedgenews.com, the invite received by Tinubu was a generic kind sent out to donors by the campaign organization. The medium which is attending the convention, also revealed that the DNC denied ever inviting Tinubu on any official capacity as the “ leader of opposition” in Nigeria The media team of Tinubu had claimed that he was invited to the Democratic National Convention in his right as the leader of the opposition in Nigeria. According to his media aide Sunday Dare “ Tinubu will be at the ring side as the Democratic Party conduct activities that will culminate in the nomination of President Barrack Obama as its candidate for the November 2012 Presidential elections in the USA.” “Tinubu receives a gold card invitation which is prime and with this, he will be joined by three other eminent personalities – Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti state, Speaker Lagos state House of Assembly Adeyemi Ikuforiji and former Commissioner for Information and Strategy in Lagos state, Mr Dele Alake.” His statement added DNC sources irked by the suggestive news reports which is being interpreted that Barack Obama may have extended a preferential invitation to Mr. Tinubu in spite of similar politicians in his native country of Nigeria, said that such notion was further from reality as was claimed by the ACN leader The DNC source explained that the invite that was given to Tinubu was a generic type that similarly went to whoever donated more than $5,000 to the Obama campaign. “The invitation card sent to Tinubu, the former senator from Nigeria, was generic and it generally goes from the campaign organization and not personally from President Obama,” the highly placed source explained under condition of anonymity. The source said that it would be difficult for anyone to implicate Obama in attempts at foisting a preferred leadership on Nigeria or Africa as that would negate the philosophy of Washington’s new international engagement. “Nigerians are capable of determining its destiny,” said the source. The source said that politicians are free to strategize, while explaining that “it is immoral to deceive anyone that we are who we are not.” “This gentleman is not like your popular national icon, businessman Moshood Abiola, who was well-grounded and at home with many people in government and private sector. Americans don’t want to be dragged into the affairs of any country through personal preferences. The man probably did what he had to do in order to gain access to the convention ground.” The source said 2 Likes |

I dont know why people will always want to jump to conclusion easily by just reading from mushroom online newspapers. I am not a politicians nor neither supporting tinubu, but i hate it when people cant just think straight before concluding about condemning peoples act without verification. check the so called website and the so called American source counterpart,you will just see that they are just mushroom online medias (close to themselves in design) with bunch of adsense adverts that may just want attention and traffic. Until there is an official press statements from obama camp like what they did during his campaign to deny asking prominent nigerians to raise funds for his campaign, then we must not quick to condemn or believe this just like any other reports. That is why you will always see "The source said", "from a reliable source", "a top official that dont want his name to be mentioned said" - all are just source of lies,lies,lies....... Why i have to say this is that we are too fast to condemn when we see any caption about a particular personnel. Recently, there was a report about 50 MFM PASTORS THAT WAS SACKED FOR EMBEZZLEMENT AND IT MADE FRONTPAGE, AND EVERYONE STARTED TO RAIN ABUSES ON THE PASTORS AND CHRISTIANITY GENERALLY, BUT IT WAS ABSOLUTELY FALSE, EVEN THE G.O OF MFM CONFIRMED IT HIMSELF, THAT HE HAD TO READ IT ONLINE AS OTHERS DID.AND THAT HE NEVER SACKED ANY 50 PASTORS ,IN FACT THAT THE CASSO REGION INVOLVED DID NOT EVEN HAVE UP TO 30 BRANCHES CONTRARY TO 50 THAT WAS CLAIMED . PROPAGANDA,LIES ,CONDEMNATIONS AND CRITICISM ARE USED BY OPPOSING AGENTS TO BRING ANYONE THAT THEY DONT LIKE DOWN. BUT WE MUST ALWAYS BELIEVE IN THE RIGHT SOURCE BEFORE CONDEMNING THE PARTY INVOLVED. and before you know it, This article will make frontpage and without verifying,everyone will start to condemn. Be wise people before making comments. |

@ 4bobo .....well you may be correct about the authenticity of the source but for now Tinubu is presumed guilty until proven innocent after all there is no smoke without fire...People are entitled to their opinion the same way you are. So a smart thing to do is to investigate the news if it's worth your time to either proof or disproof the fact. Until then you are as guilty as those you are accusing. |

If the OP's story is true then Tinubu's PR folks need to be fired. But I blame Tinubu for allowing his people to put out the information which indicated that he, Tinubu, was a special guest the convention, rather than, being invited generically because of campaign contributions. Tinubu should have known that the lie would be exposed sooner or later. na dis kind ting dey fuel doubt in the minds of those who do not trust Tinubu. SMH |

I am not surprised by what Tinubu & Co is doing to gain attention. I have always doubted his sincerity. They try to paint every other person as a "DEVIL" and paint themselves as "SAINTS". We all know how he siphoned funds and is still siphoning funds that belongs to Lagos State. In as much as am not trying to praise the ruling party, Tinubu & Co are not clean. |
