That's good. So where did he the money to set up these businesses and to become majority shareholder and owner?

From his career as a business administrator auditor and accountant with international firm like Delliote, Anderson, Price watercoooper, General Electric, Aramco, ExxonMobil,

From his inheritance from Iyaloja General of Nigeria Mogaji Abibatu

Through his investment at his own company Compass finance and investment LLC chicago which deal in stocks and bonds

How he made his first million USD in the 80s explained bellow



Bola Tinubu: "I made my first million dollar doing my accounting work in USA"

Mr Tinubu said he was sent on an assignment to help set up an accounting and auditing system for a joint venture between National Oil and Aramco in Saudi Arabia but by the time he returned to the United States, he discovered that his account had been credited in millions.

National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu has opened up on how he made his first million.

Many had questioned the source of his wealth, as many urged the APC national leader to disclose it.

In a throwback interview with TheNews Magazine on March 29, 2016, Bola Tinubu had revealed how he made his first million. He said;

“At Deloitte and Touche, I chose to travel more than 80 per cent of my working years there. And that is because if a staff chose to travel, he would make more money because he would get travel allowances,”

Mr. Tinubu said he was sent on an assignment to help set up an accounting and auditing system for a joint venture between National Oil and Aramco in Saudi Arabia but by the time he returned to the United States, he discovered that his account had been credited in millions.

“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.”

But you said you’re from south south

Yoruba people sef

Many more will surface in coming days .. all we the south south

So are Yorubas also not indegenes of coastal SouthSouth, North Central, Togo, Benin and Ghana ?!

lexy2014:
So were was the money in Tinubu bullion van gotten from & what was it used for?

From his numerous tax paying business ventures, and what his personal money is for is non of your business, except you work for FIRS or Police.. you have no right to ask what people do with their money

PrinceOfLagos:
Obasanjo was president for 8yrs but his government didn't do much for the Yoruba race

Osibanjo too is VP running to 8yrs now but almost all the youths in Ibadan and Ogun state are either ritualists or yahoo boy

It is a Shame that we've produce one president and a vice president yet, the south west is under- developed

Ok

I hear you

But please mention just one state in the entire landlock SouthEast that beats Oyo State and Ogun State in terms of GDP, IGR, Percapital, low unemployment rate, ease of doing business, Educational infrastructure and numbers of schools and colleges, land marks


We beat your sad east hands down in almost all positive index known in economics, that's why you all migrate to Southwest and your women make it a life goal to marry and give birth for a Yoruba man


.

Why else do you think Ibos are so scared of competing against SouthWest and Tinubu keeps giving them headache...

SouthEast has contested each an every election in Nigeria as Vice or President and lost

60s Azikwe lost

70s Azikwe, Ojuckwu lost again

90s Ekweume and Sylvester Ugoh lost

99 Ekweume lost

2003 - 2019 Ekweume, Okadigbo, Rochas Okorocha , Ojukwu, Orji Uzor Kalu, Peter Obi, Oby Ezekwesili all lost

DominusPrime:
Ow...so Jonathan was a thief for using bullion Vans and violating money laundering act but Tinubu isn't right? Laslas una go get sense say both APC and pdp are thieves. How a youth can support these rogues, whether apc or pdp still baffles me.

The difference is that people confessed in court the money in the bullion van was stolen by Jonathan and given to Fayose, while no one came forward to say Tinubu stole anythin

.

jazon:
Did the corruption then make us hungry? Did it increase the price s of goods? But your integrity is making people hungry, economy is going down. Someone somewhere is doing the stealing silently and stealing in autonomical proportions, that's why everybody else is suffering.

So because PDP stole and gave you rice and frozen second hand turkey they are Saint?!

Is stomach infrastructure the only thing in life?!

What about standard guarge rail, Airports, Seaports, etc

Doyou2019:
Real thieves o, fake thieves o, fact is you all are thieves. May God perish these two satanic parties and make their members and loyalists die a shameful death.( Amin)

And same fate goes to you if you have ever stolen before or used what is not yours
.can I get an honest amen from you

SarkinYarki:
If you want it to make sense just make sure you don't give that useless HITECH

Every company linked to Tinubu performs excellently well, from TVC, to Alpha Betta Tax and audit consulting

HiTech delivers wonderful projects and are in the class of Julius Berger

Sanwo-Olu is so underated

If Seyi Makinde did 1/10 of what Sanwo Olu had done and achieved .... The whole media won't stop singing his praise

It would be renovated with FG funds under ministry of mines and steel

Uche Ogah would use Ajaokuta funds

.

SarkinYarki:
So this is National Security Cash Movt you are here claiming is for Ekiti election? . You are on a long thing then ...that money could have been going anywhere to fix something that had to do with National Security .. Remember Ekiti doesnt even have airport

Except you are deliberately acting ignorant of Dasuki gate and Ekiti gate

Well everyone involved already gave their facts at the corruption trail, from the escort officers, the zenith bank staff and the bullion van driver, even 1.2 billion was relooted by Fayose

So this isn't hear say

Russia and China must not hear of this

SarkinYarki:
Even Nigeria military charters planes to move it's men at times so why won't CBN...Do you think if GEJ want to use CBN plane to move money he can't? Is that not CBN billion van we see there ? Why didn't CBN charter private bullion van

The money was released by CBN to the office of the NSA on authorisation of Min of Fin and the President, CBN released the cash in its official trucks while NSA picked it up and diverted the cash with a private plane

When did Military chater civilian vehicle for logistics?! When exactly.. they either lift you or pay you for transport and estacode, to even get voucher for such logistics submitted to finance department would be war


.

.

SarkinYarki:
Yes CBN charters flight to move money pallets when our C130s are not available...shebi you can see the special cargo door on the plane

Oga CBN has its own turboprop large plane, and uses it with airforce cargo plane

Never would they use civilian plane... Never

Who would even authorise such absordity if not PDP


.

I laugh when PDP start forming saint

SarkinYarki:
This is normal CBN interstate bullion movt done monthly abeg ..stop embarrassing yourself ..

Must you lie?!

CBN and chartered cargo plane

Defender of thieves

We know the real thieves are in PDP, they just want to use Jagaban to make themselves feel like saint

Dasuki gate, Ekiti gate, and many more PDP massive looting scandal

I thought he has a higher National Diploma already from Polytechnic of Ibadan

The only Fuji musician that sings Fuji with some very deep philosophy and message

iyke2frankeze:
He will be the one to be receiving the subsidy very soon. He is master in business tricks.

Since others only invest in useless hotels , fuelling stations and event centre or building useless estate about.... Dangote would continue cashing out big time

Only Alhaji Aliko Dangote and Rabiu Abdulsalam can remove Nigerian petroleum subsidy

No Nigerian Politician or Military dictator can, not even Abacha

Basic hygiene

Oghene1st:
Lol. I dey hit the nail on the head badly.

That is what is surprising. Olosho nor dey smell but normal girl on the street go dey smell. Who go patronise olosho wey dey smell? Body odour nor get anything to do with whether you be olosho or not.

Honestly the last time I met anyone with body odour was Atleast 6 years ago in an elevator in Sharjah UAE and the lady is Indian..

Like I said change your class and standard and odour won't be chasing you about your ghetto

boyfrank:
Exactly what u simps said about Buhari, suffer no dey tire una?

If you can't hustle for your self then blame your life failure on your self and not Buhari... Use your 24 hrs wisely and stop wailing over Buhari who is not concerned about your noise
