Nigeria’s Next Leader’s Ties to a Heroin Ring

Former Lagos provincial governor Bola Tinubu, affectionately nicknamed the Jagaban, is today seen as a shrewd if not “deeply Machiavellian” Svengali in Nigeria’s politics as well as the architect of a hugely successful anti-corruption platform. But 20 years ago he had to forfeit nearly half a million dollars to the U.S. Treasury Department after being named as an accomplice in a white heroin-trafficking and money-laundering ring that stretched from West Africa to the U.S. Midwest.

Although his case has been bandied about the Nigerian press for years, Tinubu’s involvement in a federal drug and racketeering investigation waged jointly by the DEA, FBI, and IRS has gone unreported elsewhere, even after his ascendance to Karl Rove-like status last month. A recent gauzy Financial Times profile of him, for instance, neglected to mention that two decades ago Tinubu was identified as a bagman for two Nigerian heroin movers who operated out of Chicago and Hammond, Indiana. They were Adegboyega Mueez Akande and Abiodun Agbele, Akande’s nephew, who was exposed to law enforcement after selling white heroin first to Lee Andrew Edwards, another dealer later jailed for trying to murder a federal agent, and then to an undercover cop.

In a 1993 court docket from the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Illinois, which The Daily Beast obtained from Sahara Reporters, a Nigeria-focused news outlet, IRS Special Agent Kevin Moss said that Akande had run the white heroin ring in the late 1980s until 1990, when he handed off the U.S arm of the business to his nephew, who had arrived in 1988. Akande then returned to Nigeria but continued to oversee the operation from abroad with the help of others at home and in the United States, including his relatives. One of the individuals identified in his cartel by Moss was Tinubu, then a Chicago State University-educated accountant working as a treasurer for Mobil Oil Nigeria Ltd, a subsidiary of energy giant Mobil Oil, which was still a few years shy of its famous merger with Exxon in 1999.

In the biography section of his official website, Tinubu is described as having emigrated to the United States in 1975 “in search of the proverbial Golden Fleece with a heart brimming with unrelenting determination to achieve his visions.” This is certainly one way to describe his tenure stateside.

In 1989, Moss said in an affidavit, Tinubu established an individual money market account, into which he deposited $1,000 in traveler’s checks, and a negotiable order of withdrawal account (NOW) at First Heritage Bank in Country Club Hills, Illinois. The address Tinubu gave the bank was the same as the listed headquarters of Globe-Link International, the front company owned by Akande and his relatives.

“There’s a trend of various Nigerian politicians at the highest levels involved in dodgy business deals around the world, in property and cash.”

Bank employees told Moss that Akande had personally introduced them to Tinubu in December 1989 when who also opened a joint checking account with his wife, Oluremi Tinubu, who already kept a joint account with Akande’s wife at First Heritage. Five days after the NOW account was opened, $80,000 was wired into it from a bank in Houston maintained by one of Akande’s relatives. Tinubu would later use the NOW account to buy a $10,000 Certificate of Deposit for an $8,000 car loan, listing Akande as his cousin on the application.

At the time, Tinubu’s take home as a Mobil Oil Nigeria executive was a mere $2,400 a month and he claimed not to have any other revenue streams. Yet he still managed to deposit $661,000 into his individual money market account in 1990 and then another $1,216,500 a year later. He also opened more accounts with Citibank in its worldwide personal banking unit, transferring over half a million dollars from his First Heritage money market account into one of them in early 1991.

Mobil Oil Nigeria told Moss that Tinubu’s role at the company never involved transferring large sums of money between banks and that it didn’t keep deposits in any institutions in the south suburbs of Chicago, where First Heritage was based. Moreover, although Tinubu moved back to Nigeria in 1983, he neglected to file U.S. income tax returns after 1984 despite having sizable, interest-generating deposits in American banks. All of this was enough to persuade a magistrate judge of the Northern District to issue seizure warrants for Tinubu’s First Heritage and Citibank accounts. Collectively, more than $1.4 million belonging to the Nigerian was confiscated.

Why didn't he give small expo to Buhari on how to develop the mining sector for almost 8years now?

If you have ever worked in an establishment and seen different chanfges in the organisation, promotions, transfers etc, you will understand better and not ask this kind of questions on a public forum. Many of you had been jubilating for years about how Tinubu was sidelined by Buhari and how Buhari used him and did not support him or care for him.

Since he won’t retire but wants to continue with Buhari’s achievements, what works are you doing to stop his Emilokan entitlement wailing from being realised

LieDetector:
President Muhammadu Buhari has urged Nigerians to ensure continuity of his regime by voting for the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2023 presidential election.

“The forthcoming general elections will provide us with the opportunity to convince the electorate of the need for continuity to enable our party to consolidate on our achievements in the last 7 years,” Mr Buhari said.

The president, according to a statement by his spokesperson Femi Adesina on Friday, disclosed this while receiving a delegation from Nasarawa State.
“The Government and people of Nasarawa State, as usual, have a great role to play in returning our party to governance in the 2023 elections, in order to create a path for greater socio-economic growth and development.

“This is not only important for Nigeria alone but also for the West African Sub-Region,” the president was further quoted as saying.

Lagos, the commercial hub of Nigeria, has been ranking as one of the worst places to live in the world for the nine straight years, a BusinessDay analysis shows.

Data from the 2019 Global Liveability Index published by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), the world’s leader in global business intelligence, shows the city has been within the range of 137th-139th position out of a total of 140 cities in the world from year 2011-2019.

Last year, Nigeria overtook India as the country with the largest number of people living in extreme poverty, thereby becoming the world capital of poverty, according to the Brookings Institute. This year, the number has risen to 91.6 million from 87 million in June 2018. Every minute, six Nigerians enter the group of extremely poor people, according to the World Poverty Clock.

The game is: promise everything that'll help you win votes and when you get there, don't do it until the 4th year of your tenure.

Five months to go, start doing what you promised, then pause and tell them to vote you for a second term to continue the project.

When they vote you for the second term, abandon the project. Simple formula and it always works.

You know how to break the shackles of poverty, but eight years of your party has seen Nigerians not just broke but broken! PDP in all their sixteen years of corruption as your party has always claimed, did not record the number of suicides your party has presided over! The maami water in Lagos lagoon is now complaining of overcrowding since Nigerians started seeking her cool watery embrace to escape the heat of the economy. Your party weaponized poverty thinking it the best way to retain power, and Nigerians are saying with one voice, your ambition kolé werk! grin

Oh please shut up. Buhari sidelined him but he claim to be builder of talents. He has Fashola, House speaker, the VP and numerous other boys of his in the government working with Buhari everyday. He even calls himself APC party leader yet he couldn't help the government he claims to have enthroned to be successful. He is waiting until he gets there before he does something. Show me where Tinubu once offered his professional advice to this government or where he has condemned them for any misdeeds. Stop being hypocritical my friend. Tinubu is a greedy man.

Lol...the same way APC "developed" Nigeria in the last 7 years. Thank God Nigerians are wiser now and will vote wisely.

My brother the truth is all these smear campaigns and image laundering won't fool anyone. Many Nigerians are now conscious, the 7 years of APC was hell and many are just waiting for the election to show anger forget all these Media painting and gaslighting, Nigerians will vote out APC the only doubt is for Buhari to decide not to influence things which he has promised. If this election goes 60 % free and fair, APC won't come back the same with PDP many are fed up with their governments and just wanted to try new government. With Obi popularity Nigeria might witness a big turn around in political events. All these hullabaloo that always grace the front page about "obi did this, soludo said this, labour party share money, no crowd in LP rally" are just click baits and stories to push propaganda and justify payment, to be sincere all of them will do ziltch and won't influence or change the minds of many Nigerians

Mrgovernor:
He's been taking credit for the good job of former Governors Fashola and Ambode.

There was Lagos before Tinubu became Governor. At least we heard of good work of Baba Jakande, we were all here during Marwa's tenure as a Milad. He did wonderfully well.

Tinubu contributed in no small measure to the menace of Agberos & "owo mi da" menace on Lagos road. So many unresolved assassinations of political foes during his tenure. We were all here....


Fashola was the deal. He opened up Lagos. Restored sanity of laws and orders. Built infrastructures. He is the true foundation of today's Lagos. What he did became the minimum standard to measure performance in governance everywhere. You cannot but like him, his religion notwithstanding. Nobody was concerned if he is a Christian or Muslim.


Ambode came and turned Lagos to construction sites. He did fantastic jobs despite his many floors. We were all witnesses to the number of roads, bridges, he constructed. Following the footsteps of Fashola he gave Oshodi a new look and transformed Berger. He started delineation of roads with "barb" wires and lighten up the city. He planned feeding the people by going into rice production in partnership with Kebbi state Govt. Is there anyone here who didn't hear of Lake Rice. He put LASTMA & VIO where the truly belong. That's governance per excellence!

But, the corrupt establishment that foisted him on the people felt he doesn't know how to play politics. They want him to face administration while Bourdelion face the aspect of politics. He too was naive, he should have play ball with them and show them pepper after securing his second term in office. It's not hard to win the hearts of the glutinous assembly members, just give them contracts.

Amoda Ogunlere cannot take credit for the good works of Fashola and Ambode. We are witnesses to their good work in Lagos. I am omo oduaa tokan tokan, and won't be cajoled by the foolish sentiment of following my tribe's man. It means my education is a waste If I fall for that. We are waiting for him at the poll.

The current house boy that occupies Lagos has performed below standard. We know he doesn't have balls. But let him continue until his days of reckoning.... His sin will find him out.
God didn't create or invent aeroplane but He is the architect of all man inventions because without nature man invention would be a mere mirage. Tinubu is the architect of today's and tomorrow's Lagos
