dwas:


Is this not laughable? With all the claimed educational achievement of Peter Obi, what's the achievement as state government in 8 years of governance.? It's a shame if you can't point out major policies and economic development driven by set policies he initiated to ameliorate the suffering of Anambra people.
Please, I need facts with veritable evidence

00FFT00:


He who charges must also prove.

Can you enumerate for us what Tinubu achieved as a two-term Governor in Lagos?. I am aware that Lagosians can not drink water from taps powered by their government nor do they have succor from filth and traffic gridlock.

Please list em.

simpleseyi:


My brethren, if Lagos that Tinubu governed is not better than Anambra which Peter Obi governed, how come all Anambra indegenes are hustling in Lagos holdups, but you will never see a Lagos indegene in Anambra?

usmolad:
Peter Obi only obtained B.A Philosophy. All the others you listed are just seminars organized by those schools and attended by him, they are not in any way qualifications. There are only two forms of qualification; academic and professional. Academically, Peter Obi had B. A Philosophy. Professionally, he got zero qualifications. So, stop hyping him based on qualifications, hype him based on his achievement.

DaInferno:
rhats a good CV right there, I as a Nigerian is personally challenged by it, the question is;

Where's the latter's own. Even if its just the qualifications you just condemned.

We all need to start asking very critical and intelligent questions to these leaders this era.

Donshegxy10:


so, you think what you are asking is an intelligent question?

It is in public domain that he graduated with hons from chicago, he was one of the best students in that year.

Asking about the qualification or credibility of a man who worked at the highest level in about 3 international organisation is not only childish and funny but stupid and laughable.

DaInferno:
some times I wonder why some "people" are so angry and quick to attack. So In your own damn opinion, because he worked in three bodies which by the way have not being properly listed out as Obis' was listed...we shouldn't ask. As for as you don't arrange it as it is above, you just blabbing and nobody in the world will take you seriously. IMO the fact that you think the question is childish and laughable is a lack of gross accountability on your side. You are not taking into considerations things that should be of concern for people vying for the position of a country. Rest abeg

Donshegxy10:


the question is a stupid one because those who were asking knows better.

As an intelligent person there are some questions you dont ask, what you should be asking is his capability and plans for nigeria.

How was he able to get to where he is today, private sector, international recognised organisations, manegerial positions, senate, 2 term governor, he cant go through this process without adequate check and balances.

Asking questions that are verified by the institution in far away chicago and are in public domain all in the aim to make funny jokes is not critical and intelligent.

DaInferno:
I think this whole comment is stupid as well, so inversely, you trynna say that Obi who his qualifications out for people to see is stupid...because it has not being mentioned anywhere in the original post where Tinubu attended whatever you just listed out here. I wonder why all of a sudden, its stupid for people ( or me) to ask. You claimed the people asking know better; how many people you think know about the qualifications of either tinubu or whoever is going out for an office if not that it's being listed out just like the op posted Obis own up there?

Hypothetically speaking, when you go for an interview, do you leave your CV at home because in your damn mind, your present employee is supposed to give you a job off-of the strength of your past offices?!

No, you must present your CV!

Bottomline is, he should list out his qualifications ( as presented by the op in this post) for clarity and not by proxy or What are you, Tinubus fking mouth piece?!
For the benefit of those who don't know about Tinubu qualifications, we want to see it with our own eyes. That too hard?
I won't respond to a sentimentalist again

sreamsense:
And yet with all these educational qualification including two month courses and online certificates, soludo couldn't invite Obi to lecture them about governance and economics; but soludo has to invite Babatunde Fashola, who is one of Tinubu students to lecture Anambra about government and its staff members on sustainable governance. Tinubu is not working in the league of Obi, you can only compare trainees of Tinubu like Fashola to Obi

FULL NAME: Bola Ahmed Adekunle Tinubu

DATE OF BIRTH: 29 March 1952 (age 67)

OCCUPATION: Accountant, Politician

MARITAL STATUS: Married

INTRODUCTION

Bola Ahmed Tinubu was elected Senator for the Lagos West constituency in Lagos State, Nigeria in 1993, he also was elected governor of Lagos State (1999 – 2007). He is said to be among Nigeria's most successful politicians ever. He is currently the national leader of the ruling party in Nigeria, All Progressive Congress (APC).

EARLY LIFE AND BACKGROUND

Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was born in Lagos, Nigeria to the illustrious Tinubu Family of Lagos State. He attended Richard Daley College, Chicago Illinois, where he earned himself a place in the honors list of the College. He subsequently proceeded to the Chicago State University, Illinois where he obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration (Accounting and Management).

During his undergraduate years, he was honored with the Outstanding Student’s Award, The University Scholar’s Award and the Certificate of Merit in Accounting and Finance.

On his arrival in the U.S. in 1975 and with the support of an ever-adoring mother, this courageous youth, faced with an unflinching zeal to succeed, took on such menial jobs as dishwashing, night-guard and cab-driving to see himself through the initial difficulties of school at the Richard Daley College, Chicago, Illinois.

The brilliance of this young Nigerian showed in his ability to make the honours’ list of Richard Daley College. He subsequently transferred to the Chicago State University, Illinois, graduating with honours in 1979 and earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration (Accounting and Management). During his first year in Chicago State University, young Bola was given the rare privilege to partly teach other students of his Faculty remedial tutorial classes. Most of his colleagues and contemporaries at the university attributed their improved grades to his tutorial lectures.

Throughout his undergraduate years, young Bola was on the Dean’s List and was honoured with the Outstanding Student’s Award, the University Scholar’s Award and the Certificate of Merit in Accounting and Finance. He was also awarded the prestigious Sumna cum laude for scoring 3.54 out of possible 4.0 GP.

With his successful academic profile, young Bola contested and won his first political election as the President of the Accounting Society of the institution in his final year at the University.

Upon graduation with honours and several awards, Bola Tinubu cut his professional teeth at the American-based Arthur Anderson, Deloitte Haskins and Sells (now called Deloitte Haskins and Touche) and GTE Service Corporation - the largest Communication and Utility Company in the United States of America.

Meanwhile, at Deloitte Haskins and Sells, the young and professional Bola broadened his experience by participating in the auditing and management consultancy services of General Motors, First National Bank of Chicago, Procter and Gamble, International Harvester, GEC and other Fortune 500 firms.

CAREER AND LIFE

On his return to Nigeria and with his international experience in Financial Management, young Bola joined Mobil Producing Nigeria as a Senior Auditor before he retired as the company’s Treasurer.

As pragmatic, charitable, grassroots’ person, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu saw communal service as a veritable tool for social development. He never hesitated to serve his community spearheading several financial contributions and fund-raising for community development programmes in Lagos State. He leads Primrose Group, a political action organization pushing for fundamental changes in the politics of Lagos State.

Asiwaju Bola Tinubu opted fully for public service in exchange for his lucrative job at Mobil. His first foray into active politics was as a founding member of the defunct Social Democratic Party (SDP). In 1992, he was elected as an Honourable Senator of the Federal Republic Nigeria to represent Lagos West Senatorial District. At the National Assembly, he distinguished himself as the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Banking, Finance, Appropriation and Currency - a foremost committee of the Senate.

With the annulment of the June 12, 1993 Nigerian Presidential Election and the consequent fresh militarization of the Nigerian politics, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu became a founding member of the famous pro-democracy group, the National Democratic Coalition (NADECO) which, for several years, engaged the military for the very soul of Nigeria. Subsequently, Bola Tinubu suffered many arrests and detention, harassments and constant threats to his life forcing him to flee Nigeria for his personal safety. He, however, did not give up the struggle as he joined NADECO abroad to continue the agitation for a restoration of democratic governance and the rule in the country.

In 1998, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu returned to Nigeria to heed a call for all Nigerians to join in the National Reconciliation and Development. A year later, he began his two-term public service as an elected Executive Governor of Lagos State on the platform of the Alliance for Democracy (AD).

For his excellent performance as the Executive Governor of Lagos State of Nigeria (1999 – 2007), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu received several awards. These include Best Governor in Nigeria for Y2000 by the Nigerian-Belgian Chamber of Commerce; Y2002 Best Practices Prize in improving the living environment, awarded by the Federal Ministry of Works and the UN Habitat Group; Y2000 Best Computerized Government in Nigeria Award by the Computer Association of Nigeria. Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was conferred with the Honorary Doctor of Law Degree by the Abia State University in recognition of his immense contribution to democracy, good governance and development of Nigeria. He is the proud recipient of numerous other chieftaincy titles and a patron of many professional and social organizations.

As an astute political strategist, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu survived the massive incursion of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the South Western States of Nigeria as the lone re-elected Governor of the Alliance for Democracy (AD). This led him on a regular collision course with the PDP-controlled Federal Government, especially on his creation of additional 37 Local Council Development Areas for Lagos States. A Supreme Court judgment in his favour stated that the Mr. Olusegun Obasanjo’s Federal Government should release the seized statutory allocation of the Lagos State Local Government funds.

Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was actively involved in the creation of the Action Congress (AC) political party as recourse to the decimated Alliance for Democracy (AD). Rallying like minds across the country, he sold sound ideals and programmes on this fresh and new political platform. Within a few months, he transformed this new party as the credible opposition to the PDP in the country.

His political career began in 1992, when he was elected to the Nigerian Senate representing the Lagos West constituency in the short-lived Nigerian Third Republic. After the results of the 12 June 1993 presidential elections were annulled, Tinubu became a founding member of the pro-democracy National Democratic Coalition (NADECO), which mobilized support for the restoration of democracy and recognition of the 12 June results. He went into exile in 1994 and returned to the country in 1998 after the death of military dictator Sani Abacha, which ushered in a transition to civilian rule.

In the run-up to the 1999 elections, Bola Tinubu was a protégé of Alliance for Democracy (AD) leaders Abraham Adesanya and Ayo Adebanjo. He won the AD primaries for the Lagos State gubernatorial elections in competition with Funsho Williams and Wahab Dosunmu, a former Minister of Works and Housing. In April 1999, he stood for the position of Executive Governor of Lagos State on the AD ticket and was elected.

Lagos State governor

When he assumed office in May 1999, Bola Ahmed Tinubu promised 10,000 housing units for the poor. During his eight-year period of office, he made large investments in education in the state. He also initiated new road construction, required to meet the needs of the fast-growing population of the state.

The Oloye Tinubu, alongside a new deputy governor, Femi Pedro, won re-election to office as Governor in April 2003. All other states in the South West fell to the People's Democratic Party.

He was involved in a struggle with the Federal government over whether Lagos State had the right to create new Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) to meet the needs of its large population.

The controversy led to the Federal government seizing funds meant for local councils in the state. During the later part of his term in office, he was engaged in continuous clashes with PDP powers such as Adeseye Ogunlewe, a former Lagos State senator who became minister of works, and Bode George, southwest chairman of the PDP.

Relations between Bola Tinubu and deputy governor Femi Pedro became increasingly tense after Pedro declared his intention to run for the gubernatorial elections. Femi Pedro competed to become the AC candidate for governor in the 2007 elections, but withdrew his name on the eve of the party nomination. He defected to the Labour Party while still keeping his position as deputy governor. Tinubu's tenure as Lagos State Governor ended on 29 May 2007 when Babatunde Fashola of the Action Congress took office. Fashola had been Chief of Staff to Bola Tinubu.

Today, the great legacy of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is built on by his successor, Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN), who served as his Chief of Staff. Continuation of Tinubu’s outstanding policies makes the present administration of Lagos State an exceptional and the foremost Government in Nigeria.

The Jagaban Borgu still marches on in the political landscape of the country, with a resolve to take on any challenging task with positive public to reduce poverty among his people.

Following the victory by the People's Democratic Party (PDP) in the April 2007 elections, Bola Tinubu was active in negotiations to bring together the fragmented opposition parties into a "mega-party" capable of challenging the PDP in 2011. In July 2009, he called for implementation of electoral reforms spelled out in the Uwais report to ensure that the 2011 elections would be as free and fair as the elections of 1993 had been. In December 2009 there were reports that Babatunde Fashola and Bola Tinubu had fallen out over the issue of whether Fashola should run for reelection in 2011, with Tinubu said to be supporting the Commissioner for Environment, Muiz Banire, now National APC Legal adviser but later criticizing what he's a beneficiary.

Tinubu formed a new party alongside Muhammadu Buhari a party which was named All Progressive congress (APC). The goal was to build a stronger party to get rid of the ruling party PDP.

In 2015 Tinubu's target became a success as APC won the presidential elections and most of the polls across the country.

Tinubu is married to Oluremi Tinubu, the current Senator of central Lagos State. His youngest daughter, Abibat Tinubu, graduated from a Music college in Boston, Massachusetts, US in 2013.

Come, join me in celebrating a living legend, grassroots mobilizer, National leader, the custodian of our political history, astute politician, a political prophet and excellent personified. My prayer for him is that the Almighty God shall continue to protect him, grant him good health and prosper him more. I believe that through his leadership, Nigeria will not be the same, in handling unemployment, insecurity and economy crisis, Nigeria shall be great again.

ThEGodFaThEr131:

What is stopping you from opening the thread? Open it and let's compare and contrast. By the way, you're trying to impose an Olodo on Nigerians. A man who told Nigerian youths in Lagos that our telephone lines were disconnected from National grid.

Donshegxy10:
With all this qualifications he was humiliated at the last election by buhari who does not even have a NEPA BILL..

dododawa1:
Is it by education or developed d Nation
Can you compare LAGOS State in Tinubu regime(without federal allocation for obj) to Peter Obi regime in Anambra (with constant federal allocation) nonsense.

ThEGodFaThEr131:

Mumu, it's not by education. Why don't you allow Mc Oluomo and Co. To come and govern your state. Mumu

ThEGodFaThEr131:

And today with the Buhari at the helm of affairs;
Nigeria is poverty capital of the world
Economy is riddled with inflation
Unemployment is highest since independence
Universities are on strike
Nigeria's foreign and domestic debt has gone up like never before
Fulani herdsmen causing havoc every where
Boko haram fulani bandits and iswap terrorists are holding the nation to ransom

If not for fools like you and your likes people like Buhari who lack the necessary qualifications and technical knowhow will not be there today.

BluntTheApostle:


Who cares how much it costs?

Anyone with money can go there and get a certificate of participation.

Stop including them among his academic qualifications.
