When the Lagos state government under the administration of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu had issues with the federal government, president Obasanjo witheld the federal allocation meant for Lagos for months yet Lagos did not starve.

Tinubu introduced the concept of IGR; salaries were still payed to state workers, projects were carried out, policies were implemented etc with no kobo coming from Abuja

That picture was taken at a site of the Eko Atlantic project. Tinubu's administration initiated the idea for the project and Bill Clinton's organisation also has a stake in it

Man, that's probably because Clinton has an organization that promotes projects and initiatives that are ecologically friendly. Clinton probably knowledge of the project and was their to lend his support for the project. Clinton probably doesn't know Tinubu's name

barcanista: 4. HON. OPEYEMI BAMIDELE, MEMBER HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE(LP)
Bamidele served as Commissioner for Information and later Special Adviser to Governor Tinubu between 1999 and 2003. He also served in the cabinet of Governor Fashola. In 2011, he was given the Ticket of Action Congress of Nigeria to run for a seat in Federal House of Representative, representing his constituency in Ekiti State. His popularity grew in Ekiti State that he sought for the Governorship ticket of the ACN/APC to challenge incumbent John Fayemi. This drew the anger of Party heavyweight in Ekiti State led by party leader Otunba Niyi Adebayo. He defected to Labour Party to contest for the governorship unsuccessfully. Today, he still holds Tinubu in High Esteem and according to him, "APC has been reaching out to him for reconciliation"


5. MR. AKINWUNMI AMBODE, FMR. ACCOUNTANT GENERAL, LAGOS STATE.
A retired civil servant who served as Auditor General of Local Government in Lagos State and later, Accountant General of the State and Permanent Secretary. It was under his watch that Lagos State carved out internal revenue policies to run the state when President Obasanjo seized States Fund for 3 Years. Ambode's initiative earned him accolades from the Governor(Tinubu) and Royal Fathers in the State. He's the frontrunner for the APC Gov. ticket in Lagos State.

While B.A.T is a dye-in-the-wool capitalist,i am more socialist inclined,i admire him for his political sagacity.I just hope BAT and GMB can fashion out a winning
strategy for the 2015 elections.

barcanista: Take your gossip else where. Tinubu just returned from the USA.. Why didn't they arrest him? He has no immunity, why didn't NDLEA/Police Arrest him?


Is it that you are CLUELESS, partially BLIND or both as this was part of the Sahara Reporters story I posted

After a protracted litigation in which Bola Tinubu claimed that the monies legitimately belonged to him, his wife, Oluremi Tinubu and his surrogate mother, one Alhaja Mogaji, Bola Tinubu finally opted for a stipulated settlement with the U.S government. According to the settlement Order dated September 15, 1993; Hon. Judge John A Nordberg ordered that the sum of $460,000 held by Bola Tinubu in The First Heritage Bank account be forfeited to the United States Government. The Court also ordered the release of the funds held in the Citibank account and any money held in excess of $460,000 at the First Heritage account to Bola Tinubu in line with the agreement and stipulation reached by Tinubu with the federal agents.

Bill Clinton will appear at any function for a speech once you can pay his fees:


Bill Clinton once made $1.3 million in TWO DAYS from speaking gigs and has made $105m in twelve years

THISDAY Newspaper Group paid Clinton $700,000 for a Lagos, Nigeria speech on March 25, 2011. The organization paid Clinton an additional $700,000 for a February 13, 2012 speech.

Why do you guys LIE as if you are breathing oxygen
Obasanjo's federal administration seized only the money meant for the LGAs, which is a fraction of what the state itself gets. The allocation for Lagos STATE government was NEVER seized.

This was the news about the released money by Yaradua from Thief'nubu own newspaper- The Nation:

President Umaru Yar’Adua’s directive to the Accountant-General of the Federation to release forthwith the N10.8 billion funds belonging to the Lagos State Local Governments must have shocked to former President Olusegun Obasanjo whose government sat on the funds illegally for four years. Segun Adeniyi, the president’s spokesman, said the president gave the directive after consultations within the agencies and institutions of government.

My philosophy is to put the best forward, men and women of competence and integrity, who can stand up to us politicians to challenge us and say no when necessary. Such people are not noisy or able to gain attention by being loud, I believe my role is to do all I can to project them."

When you read something from someone with this kind of mindset....you just can't help but feel that Nigeria is blessed with very profound and intellectual minds.


I guess that the JagaBandit must have found those sterling qualities in Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces.
Otherwise what led him to throw his ACN presidential candidate, Ribadu under the bus





after visiting Aso Rock on the eve of the 2011 elections. The results in south west + Edo states are evident of the JagaBandit's validation of GEJ's EXCELLENT qualities as a leader:
