“I Don’t Believe In One Nigeria" – Tinubu (1997) by crowther15(m): 5:14pm On Jul 26, 2022
It was reported and believed that Tinubu granted an interview on April 13, 1997, and this was published on This Day Newspaper.

According to the column written by Olu Fasan, a London based lawyer and political economist, 'How would someone who did not believe in the unity and oneness of Nigeria then make becoming the country’s president the sole aim of his life, his entire purpose?'

Again from the column He wrote, But let’s cut Tinubu some slack. Let’s say that he made the “I Don’t Believe in One Nigeria” comment out of frustration. After all, as we know, Tinubu tends to hit the roof and make outlandish comments when he’s angry, a trait to watch out for if he became president as he’s utterly prone to provocative and divisive outbursts.

Consider his recent comment that Peter Obi’s Labour Party supporters “will labour till death.” What about his condescending “olule” diatribe against President Buhari?


Do you think Tinubu made such comment out of frustration about 26 years ago?

Yet, he wants to rule one nigeria.

He can't eat his cake and have it.

That his comment should be translated in hausa, Igbo and yoruba and put on billboards all over the country during campaign. grin

Didnt you think it was done of out of frustration considering the case of Abiola and Abacha in that period?.
Re: “I Don’t Believe In One Nigeria" – Tinubu (1997) by Racoon(m): 5:22pm On Jul 26, 2022
Nope! This is because the were wants to benefit from one Nigeria by being Abacha's deputy but failed. Today, he's benefiting from the fraud of "one Nigeria" hence wants to rule.

Are you sure this man is sound mentally? See the kind of comments He made out of frustration to Peter Obi, Buhari and even Dapo Abiodun in Ogun State. The writer based his assertion around this comments.
