Stop deceiving him
Re: Amaechi Vs Tinubu by Dawn91(op): 10:28am On Feb 06, 2022
Bola Ahmed Adekunle Tinubu (born 29 March 1952)[1] is a Nigerian politician and a national leader of the All Progressives Congress.He was Lagos State Governor from 1999 to 2007.

Early life
Tinubu was born on 29 March 1952 in Osun State, Nigeria. His mother, Abibatu Mogaji, was a trader that later became the Iyaloja of Lagos State.

Education
He attended St. John's Primary School, Aroloya, Lagos and Children's Home School in Ibadan, South West of Nigeria. Tinubu then went to the United States in 1975, where he studied first at Richard J. Daley College in Chicago, Illinois, and then at Chicago State University. He graduated in 1979 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting.

Early career
Tinubu worked for the American companies Arthur Andersen, Deloitte, Haskins, & Sells, and GTE Services Corporation.[4] After returning to Nigeria in 1983, Bola Tinubu joined Mobil Oil Nigeria, and later became an executive of the company.


Corruption
In April 2007, after the elections but before Babatunde Fashola had taken office, the Federal Government brought Tinubu before the Code of Conduct Bureau for trial over the alleged illegal operation of 16 separate foreign accounts.[20] In January 2009, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission cleared Tinubu and governors James Ibori of Delta State and Obong Victor Attah of Akwa Ibom State of charges of conspiracy, money laundering, abuse of office and official corruption in relation to a sale of V-mobile network shares in 2004.[21] In March 2009, there were reports that a plot had been identified to kill Tinubu. The Alliance for Democracy called on the Inspector General of Police, Mike Okiro, to conduct a thorough investigation.[22] In September 2009, however, there were reports that the British Metropolitan Police were investigating a transaction in which the Lagos State government made an investment in Econet (now Airtel). Tinubu said the transaction was straightforward and profitable to the state, with no intermediaries involved.[23] The Federal Government rejected a request by Britain to release evidence needed for further investigation and prosecution of the three Nigerian ex-governors in a London court.[24]

Tinubu has been widely perceived as the "Godfather of Lagos",[25] leveraging his political capital in the mega city-state to influence regional and national affairs. His role in pulling the strings of the mega city-state was exposed in The Lion of Bourdillion, a 2015 documentary film highlighting Tinubu's political and financial grip on the city-state. Tinubu filed a N150 billion libel suit against the producers, AIT,[26] and the documentary stopped airing on 6 March 2015. Nonetheless, antecedents such as his overbearingness on successors such as in December 2009, when there were reports that Fashola and Tinubu had fallen out over the issue of Fashola's re-election in 2011, with Tinubu preferring the commissioner for environment, Muiz Banire.[27] And a similar scuffle in 2015, over Fashola's successor pitting Tinubu against him who threw his full weight behind Akinwunmi Ambode,[28] who later succeeded Fashola and was himself single-handedly ousted from office by Tinubu replacing him with incumbent Babajide Sanwo-Olu,[29] all goes to show his unprecedented influence in the city-state.[30] During the 2019 election, a bullion van was seen entering Tinubu's residence on Bourdillion Road in Ikoyi, with Tinubu claiming "I keep money anywhere I want".

Re: Amaechi Vs Tinubu by xangerar: 10:37am On Feb 06, 2022
"...his THEN elder cousin, Celestine Omehia..."

The word "THEN", as used, is suggestive of the fact that Omehia has ceased to be Amaechi's cousin. Like is it possible to also retire or resign from being someone's cousin?

Once amaechi declears his 2023 presidential ambition, then tinubu and osinbajo should just step down for him....

He will win both combined together during primaries.

Both north and south are comfortable with him.

Bobo Chicago stands no chance against this gentle man. He is loved by Buhari, he always has said he is Igbo so he has the southeast vote , the Southwest vote will be split for him , the North will vote for him because buhari says so . It will be a land slide victory

Definitely that is a sure banker.. Amaechi never preaches politics of hate unlike Tinubu calling some people Okoro or Drunkards!!

Amaechi has always said he is Igbo, he is a true son of the Niger Delta, he is loved by the north

No one cares how the southwest sees him ... We don't do politics of tribalism in Southsouth . So with the southsouth, North and southeast vote our son is surely the next president

Tinubu can have the southwest vote

Better , thanks for correcting it. Lets leave tribe out of it and focus on the person. The reason Tinubu can never win outside the southwest is his chronic tribalistic tendencies and unfortunately this affects 99% of his kinsmen.

2023 will put a real shocker for alot of people. The union is SS, SE & NE,NC , NW

Tinubu will only win in the SW

This is the reality

Unfortunately tribalism aside the SW so much porpagated this politics of tribalism and that is what is back firing against all their candidates. It's sad really..
For years they would come to us in southsouth to campaign how Igbo hate us then go to north and campaign how Igbo hate them, forgetting this doesn't endear anyone to the southwest.

The .Tinubu came out to publicly ridicule a group by calling them okoro and referring to our son GEJ as a drunkards from a drunkard region and they are wondering why no one wants to back any of their candidates? It's sad really



Okay now.

Tribalism has no place in the growth of the nation, the southwest caused this for themselves.

Although I’ve decided not to comment on this issue
But
So you mean Jagaban is tribalistic
Yet he has political allies across the country
One thing about hate is that it’s beclouded your level of reasoning
One was even saying he would rather vote a terrorist than jagaban
How stupid can people be

Hehehee allies ? Don't confuse people wanting to get their own share of his loot with love or allegiance. I expected you are more intelligent than that .

Atiku seemingly had the whole allies across Nigeria and internationally didn't he? How about Kwankwaso that seemed like a religion in the north?

Bobo Chicago is just a thief and a corrupt crook with very clear verifiable tribalistic antecedents.

He ha never respected our sons and daughters from the Niger Delta!! He sees us as unfitting for anything good . He sees only the Yoruba as deserving good things.

His TV station TVC constantly demarkets us as a region plagued with cultism ,militancy and insecurity. He made dangote take.his refinery to Lagos that would have employed thousands of our sons and daughters. Let's not talk about how he sees the Igbo people, those ones he constantly talks down on and labels okoros.

Why do you think he hasn't dared step into the SS or SE.for his stupid so called campaign.

True love shows , did you see Amaechi giving millions to zamfara victims or Kaduna victims ? Yetlok at all the celebrity Northerners that came for his turbanning .. for goodness sake buhari left Aso rock to attend ,need I say more ?

Love isn't bought with bullion van.

Amaechi is not on the same class with Tinubu please.. what did he achieve in Rivers in his 8years as governor? monorails to nowhere according to Wike.

If not for party politics, Amaechi isn't supposed to be Minister with all the expose about him and how he was at the fore front asking GEJ to waste money from excess crude account. We know these things but just choose to overlook. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala is a better administrator than Rotimi Amaechi anyday.

Tinubu has more achievements than Amaechi.. Ameachi's influence doesn't go beyond Rivers State which is even in doubt as we speack cos Amaechi can't win elections in Rivers with Wike on the throne.

Those pushing Amaechi just want to use him to spite Tinubu, nothing more. Until the real primaries hold and the candidate declared, all these stories are mere conjectures and speculations.

Please where did you see hate in my comments?. You see what is in you only . It seems you hate others so when anyone disagrees with you , you and your Kins men are quick to label it hate.

FYI in developed world disagreement is perfectly fine. On the other hand it is Tinubu and the SW that are the main proponents of politics of grated in Nigeria. You go to every region and tell them how the other hates them and only you are their best ally , is that normal politics?

I am here stating facts you are in turn asking for facts again, are you confused.? Go online and check all Tinubu supporters like Adeyinka grandson, they ar ehard core politcians. During the national endsarrs protest around Nigeria you guys turned the one in Lagos to Yoruba Ronu just to target the Igbo in your state is it not ?.

Which other politicians has attacked us in the southsouth more than Tinubu and the southwest?

Just do a Google search
