Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo has fired back at critics of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu, questioning the authenticity of his family.

Keyamo said this in a conversation held on a Twitter Spaces Programme organised by the ABAT (Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu) media team on Sunday.

Tinubu’s family

The lawyer argued that the former Lagos state governor’s family has not disowned him, and anyone still raising an issue on it is fabricating lies.

Keyamo said, “We can’t stay in our houses and manufacture cock and bull stories about families. If the families you say he claims to be part of has not come out to deny their illustrious son, then what is your headache?”

Speaking on the issue of the alleged falsity of Tinubu’s certificate, Keyamo said, “PDP seriously wanted Lagos and Asiwaju held firm if he ever presented a false certificate back in 1999 and now, PDP and INEC will have feasted on it and used it in disqualifying him from contesting.”

Bullion vans in 2019

On the issue of Bullion vans driven to the residence of the APC National Leader prior to the 2019 general elections, the minister dared Nigerians to come up with evidence.

He, then, added that Tinubu has met all the requirements to vie for the most coveted political office in Nigeria.

“On the question of Bullion van in Asiwaju’s house, if I may ask, how much was in it? Whoever makes a claim or allegation should come with proof. Bullion vans are for hire, they are not the property of anyone.

“Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is overqualified to contest for the position of the President of Nigeria as he has met the minimum qualification required by the law Section 131(d).”

Corruption’s allegations

Keyamo also quoted the former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Nuhu Ribadu, that Tinubu has been probed many times by the anti-graft agencies.

He said he should be in jail by now if he was found culpable of any corruption allegations levelled against him.

“Ribadu said during his time, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was one of the most investigated ex-governor, as seriously as the PDP wanted to bring him down if they found anything Asiwaju will have been in jail by now.”

“When Obi was still in kindergarten Bola Ahmed Tinubu was already a very wealthy and successful business man who had worked and invested massively in the oil, gas, hi-tech and communications sector.

At that time he was already a dollar millionaire and he invested much of his wealth into politics and the lives of others that were less fortunate than he was".

Meanwhile,

FFK is 62years old already, so he should know exactly what he’s saying. This his story is credibly reliable.

Obi is 61.

Pa Yekini allegedly claims to be 70years.

Now, does it mean that while obi was around I yr old, Pa Yekini a 11yr old “boy” was already a wealthy business”man“ and millionaire in dollars??

I’ve pleaded with you Agbado kingdom to stop packaging this fraud.

You have already done the country enough dirtiest with all the scam you sold in 2015, yet without remorse.

You plunge the whole country into needless turmoil in every single sense- economically, security and otherwise.

Today you’ve started again with outright falsehoods and fraud.


But we can only see through your scam.

FFK statements above is quite revealing.

He has inadvertently revealed that Pa Yekini is a far spent octogenarian, perhaps in his very last digits of eighty-something years.

That’s the only plausible, reasonable deduction from that revelations.

What FFK had said, which the Agbadorites are now sharing in their various WhatsApp groups and Facebook, can only lead to one irresistible conclusion;

That Pa Yekini has not truthfully told Nigerians his actual age.

Everything is still shredded in secrecy.

And the only reason for this apparent age falsification can only be found in mischiefs.

Happily, while the falsehoods last, nature abhors it, and have refused to collude in their mischiefs.

Nature is abundantly revealing Pa Yekini’s real age as the truth are all physically manifest for all to see.

You can lie to humans and deceive us.

But you can’t cheat nature.
