Wikipedia Locks Tinubu’s Page For ‘persistent Vandalism’ After Age Is Edited 84. by plaindealer: 5:39pm On Mar 30, 2021
Wikipedia editors have locked the profile page showing details about the life of Bola Tinubu, a leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), for “persistent vandalism”.


Tinubu celebrated his birthday on March 29, 2021, and as it is his custom, a colloquium was hosted to mark the day. According to his public records, Tinubu turned 69.

Many Nigerians believe he is older, and there have been numerous reports in the media that the Jagaban of Borgu is much older than he claims. There is an article online attributed to Yinka Odumakin, the spokesperson for Yoruba group known as Afenifere, which claims that Tinubu could not be as young as he claims.

In 2018, Odumakin wrote a three-part series titled “portrait of the tiger Ambode rode,” detailing his knowledge of Tinubu. The three parts were published by the Vanguard, but a fourth part with questionable origin was shared across other blogs attributing strong claims to Odumakin.


Following doubts about Tinubu’s age, numerous accounts took to Wikipedia to edit Tinubu’s age from 69 to 79. When the tweet below was made, there had been at least 18 edits to

As many tweets continued to go viral about Tinubu’s age, many attempts were made to correct the “error” on Wikipedia, leading to multiple conflicting edits.

TheCable followed the activities on the page and found that there were about 84 edits done on the page on Tinubu’s birthday and most of them were to alter or correct his age.

Shows you how crooked, mischievous, dubious and self-destructive some Nigerians are.

Why keep rushing to Wikipedia to edit the man's age just to suit your evil, lies, political and hateful political narratives.

Now, Wiki caught on to the dubious and evil tactics by these evil Nigerians and locked the page.

Even sef, what's the man's age got to do with the price of garri or your daily bread?

So Nigerians can be very very embarrassing and shameful for real.

Even though I am not a fan of Tinubu but I have to agree with the fact that he is the most influential politician from the Southern part of Nigeria at the moment.

No southern politician alive can match Tinubu's political influence in Nigeria.

He knows how to play politics so well.

If you think otherwise prove me wrong with your facts

What are Igbos complaining about? Even if his age is 100yrs, how is that your headache? You are yet to foot your Obi for the usual VP but you are fixated on dragging others down.

No wonder, Igbo always fail in politics. This is not how to play and win.

I might not be sure of anything but I’m sure Tinubu is far more intelligent than you.

He used to work at Deloitte Consulting which is one of the big 4 consulting company in the world.

What about reaching the peak of his career at Mobil?

Can you present your credentials here so we can judge who will be more intelligent between you and Tinubu?

The fact that you have a lot of yes men after your illegitimate money doesn't mean you are influential...without rigging can Tinubu even win Election in Ikoyi?

This is the same politics of hate that Azikwe played against Awolowo. We all know how it ended badly for him and his tribesmen.

Hate only pull down not build.
