Bola Tinubu: “We had gone there to set up their accounting and auditing system. It was while on that service that I got my financial break. When I returned to the United States, my employers gave me a huge bonus, which instantly turned me into a millionaire.
“The bonus was $850,000, before taxes. My salaries were also being paid into the bank and I was not touching them. At the time, my salary deposits in the bank had risen to about $1.8 million.”


First, i hope the Internal revenue service (IRS) in US will check the accuracy of this claim by Bola Tinubu , especially if he paid taxes on $1.8 million

Second, there is clear evidence of money laundry in Mr. Tinubu statement. Notice that most of auditing and accounting jobs done by Mr. Tinubu involved oil company, Exxon. Most Nigerians work with foreign oil companies in Nigeria to ship excess oil without official record and get rewarded in foreign countries with million of dollars--paid into their bank accounts. The account of Mr. Tinubu wealth smells like one of those activities--Money laundry.

So, election is a contest of ideas----. I am waiting to see opposition research on Mr. Tinubu claim in the coming months.

If you believe this stupid story, you need to have your head examined.

A Yahoo boy can tell better story,every criminal can make up anystory.

Let's see your bank statement as at that time.

His story sounds like he went to public toilet and found a bag of cash or that he won a lottery, cock and bull story

Is he the only auditor that has audited a major company account, how many accountants are swimming in millions.

What was the naira to Dollar exchange rate as at then?

Extraordinary claim require extraordinary evidence. Convince us with documénts and facts and an independent verification,

Do thiß people think we are fools or what.



If you think this would give you a soft landing you are mkstaken

I read a report on the state of Chicago conducting investigation on Tinubu sudden wealth and huge account deposits.

So they are trying to tell us that a whole state of Chicago couldn't contact Tinubu employers to ascertain they were the depositors of the money into his personal account?

Money that was deposited by different names. I think the report even contains his account statement and numbers.

I'm sure somebody will find that story on this Nairaland. It's on the newspapers too.

Oya, digging journalists.

This should answer the question of how Tinubu made his money. Baba has been a millionaire in dollars since his private sector days. Atiku on the other hand should come out and tell us how he made his first million. He should explain to Nigerians how an ordinary custom officer retired into billions of dollars.

No. He doesn't.
He serves on the board of Deloitte in Washington DC and helps people to get jobs in the company.
They audit account for the White House.
Whenever that guy visits Nigeria, he stays at Eko Hotel and Suites or Four Points...even though he has houses all over the same axis.
Some people are blessed. Ko

However, you are right.
Tinubu's claim of $850k is FALSE. $1m is a lot of money that a company cannot easily pay a staffer. The man never wan talk how him make money.

So immediate Tinubu graduate from Toronto University, they make him director in Deloitte?
Did he pass professional exams in the US?

Beware of those employed by Tinubu to help launder his image. They will bombard the internet space painting Tinubu as an angel.

But just know that he is a thief and a drug pusher.

Shut up. Una never see anything yet. When the real anti-Tinubu campaign start, shame go make you hide. Make campaign time don dey reach, you go see revelation you go tire. Nor be only Baba has been a millionaire in dollars right from time. Quack media packaging.

This is what Tinubu narrated/said and it doesn't mean it is the truth. Maybe you should do yourself a good by going to a court close to you. Ask a lawyer what cross examination and corroboration of evidence mean. Ekpa!

Don’t mind the guy.

Why can’t tinubu travel to the same USA again since he jumped bail based on drug and drug related offenses ?

Re: Bola Tinubu: How I Made My First Million by patrickmuf(m): 4:39am On Jan 14, 2022
Deloitte is still existing, an investigative journalist should get in touch with them to confirm Tinubu's claims...

Instead of you all to claim he is lying, you folks should reach out to Deloitte and get the answers you so desire...

Some of you, in your bid to de-market Tinubu will only help to make him more popular because you lot can't stop talking about him. At this rate, we just might not get to hear of any other aspirant and their plans for the country...
