‘I’m Jagaban… I Didn’t Go Anywhere’— Tinubu by ExAngel007(f): 7:12am On Oct 25, 2020
There was the rumour that the former Lagos
governor travelled out to avoid being mobbed by
some angry protesters who accused him of being
behind the Lekki shooting.

On Tuesday, soldiers opened fire on #EndSARS
protesters at the Lekki tollgate, and this
sparked off an outrage in Nigeria and across
the world.

Addressing journalists after visiting Babajide
Sanwo-Olu, governor of Lagos on Saturday,
Tinubu dismissed the rumour of his travel as
fake news, describing himself as ”Jagaban”.

The APC leader holds the title of Jagaban of
Borgu in Niger state.

“I didn’t go nowhere; I’m a Lagosian and I still
hold the title of Asiwaju of Lagos and I am still
a Jagaban,” he said.

“Fake news is all over the place. They say Seyi
my son was kidnapped and was chased but look
at him. I didn’t pay a penny to bring him here.”

He said he had come to see the governor to ask
him who ordered the shooting of protesters at
the tollgate.

“First, we have to segregate the calendar –
those who suffered casualty before the protests
from the hands of SARS. You have to separate
that from those who suffered casualty due to
what happened at the tollgate,” he said.

“For those who suffered casualty from SARS,
the commission of inquiry that is already set up
will unearth that and will make their
recommendations. I trust the calibre and the
character of the people there, they are
independent. That is one.

“Those who suffered casualty during the
gunshots need to answer some questions too.
Even though we want to help, we still must
extract information that will help the
government to prepare in future and understand
how and when to react because the governor, in
particular, is a youth.

“As a youth himself, he (Sanwo-Olu) quickly
went to Abuja with the 5/5. The government
immediately put into action, dissolved the SARS
and had to work through other recommended
actions, the needs they demanded. Within a few
days, he reported back to the public. That is
responsive enough.”

Tinubu also condemned the burning of police
stations and other public infrastructure.
