Guinea Citizenship: Cocaine And Guinea-bissau - BBC by Freethinker87(op): 8:22am On Apr 17, 2023
Guinea-Bissau - Africa's first narco-state.

Concern is mounting that Guinea-Bissau's efforts to stem the flow of drugs to Europe and the US have suffered a setback after a military-backed president took office, writes journalist Ricci Shryock.

Court documents show that the loot seized in Guinea-Bissau's largest ever drug bust last September included more than 20 vehicles, among them a "cinnamon coloured" Mercedes Benz, $3m (£2.5m) stashed in bank accounts, $90,000 worth of wine and porridge found in a warehouse, and, of course, 1.8 tonnes of cocaine hidden in sacks of rice.

Dubbed Operation Navara, the seizure culminated in 12 men - of Bissau-Guinean, Colombian, Mexican and Portuguese nationalities - being sentenced to between four and 16 years in prison last month.

Although the two ringleaders were sentenced in absentia after they managed to evade arrest, the case was hailed as a legal success for the West African state in its efforts to shed its reputation as a major transit hub for cocaine flown or shipped from Latin America to Europe and North America.

For us, this is the result of over eight years of investment, so we look forward to making sure that the future of Guinea-Bissau might be much safer from the infiltration of drug traffickers and transnational criminal networks," said Antonio Mazzatelli, the regional head of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC).

Anywhere there's cocaine, there's a likely Tinubu footprint there.

From sending wire transfers to Colombia to holding the international passport of Africa's first narco-state. You dont need to be a rocket scientist to draw a logical conclusion.

Topic and body doesn't correlate in anyway. Just another lame attempt at trying to smear our president elect. But as always. They have failed.

I hate reading from illiterates like this Op because in their f oolishness and semi-illiteracy,they reduce a genuine and germane issue to parochial and ethnic colorations because they neither understand the issues well or take time to differentiate between items on discourse.
Guinea is different from Guinea Bissau.
In your foolishness u now make it look like some of the people that have unearthed this Tinubu Guinea passport issue are just doing it from sentiments to bring him down at all costs,rather than being concerned that he has run foul of the constitution.
Illiterate op, Guinea and Guinea Bissau are 2 different countries.The BBC report on drug trade was for Guinea Bissau,so how did you link Tinubu's to Guinea Bissau?

the truth is that some of you are so foolish to the extent of seeing nothing wrong with a world known criminal. There is no smoke without fire. All the allegations are true.
Up till date nobody has told us the primary or secondary school attended by tinubu, nobody has ever come out to say they were classmates or they play football or they even know his siblings.

You guys are just chasing shadows

Guinea Bissau is different from Guinea Conakry that you guys alleged that Tinubu have its passport

so desperate to link Tinubu to drug dealing

couldn't beat him at the poll so you can only peddle these propagandas to tarnish his image and hope one stick to disqualify him.
Re: Guinea Citizenship: Cocaine And Guinea-bissau - BBC by excanny: 11:21am On Apr 17, 2023
Nothing should stop Tinubu from going to jail for drugs pushing.

So this was his source of income all along and he was lying that they left an inheritance for him.

Bustard lying bat.
Re: Guinea Citizenship: Cocaine And Guinea-bissau - BBC by Saga16: 1:05pm On Apr 17, 2023
Most Obidients are dull.

They claim Tinubu is a Guinean citizen. Yet they keep reporting that Guinea-Bissau, a completely different country is a Narco state hence Tinubu obtaining citizenship from there.

No wonder you guys follow Obi.
