If you like, write more loads of epistles to scam your regular victims. A house built on lies would never ever be straight.

He did this and did that ,what he is doing now is only what we can confirm and believe

You are so ignorant to the point to think only Tinubu have mentee because you only read or know about them, have you bothered to ask about or research about other people's mentee? No you won't because hate and inbuilt jealousy won't allow you. You cannot even read Tinubu's bio in peace without mentioning Obi or Atiku, how dilluttional?

It is no longer news that ALMOST everything TINUBU kicked against on the pages of newspaper back then is exactly what he is doing now, a well known double faced snake. That is the life of your mentor.
Lol. I understand your pain Guy. The painment of those who hate others passionately yet cannot stop the progress, success and increasing greatness of those they hate.

The most frustrating form of hatred in the world. Sorry I can't help you with that buddy. You’re on your own.

Go back and read the article.

He was 60 years in 2012. Now do the maths.
You BAT agbayas can keep deceiving yourselves! Your ancestor is almost 90 like his buddies Osoba and Akande who do not deny their real ages unlike him.How come till date he never mentions the primary or secondary school he attended.Did his life begin in Chicago? The Bola Tinubu who got admitted at Chicago was actually female!How come nobody has ever seen his SSCE ? Obviously the world will know his true age & identity if that happens! Keep deceiving yourselves! Agbayas!

How does cooking for tinubu now automatically make that person a mentee of tinubu?

Let me ask, why are you not one of the "thousands"?

Chọọ chooo chooo

Stop sending or pulling us back

What is he doing TODAY that hunger is killing people under his watch.

Propaganda and face-saving don't govern.
What is the people saying about him today!

He created Lagos, yes. Why people not safe and fed today.

No power
No water
No money
No safety
No peace
No food( common food)

All is politics for him. People need a reasonable leader and not a smart politician. Political parties need a smart politician but the masses need a caring and reasonable leader.

What we have today is a smart politician

The funny truth, why is Tinubu afraid of FBI realising is Chicago dossiers. How did Nurudeen Olowopopo drowned in a swimming pool and a Street named after him? Tinubu has never been a democrats, all those flocking around him are there solely for their pockets. Why are many of them not in good terms with him.

Very interesting! Nigeria has really happened to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu ,he has paid the price, no wonder he had to voiced out "emilokan"!
We're waiting for Atiku Abubakar ,Peter Obi and Omoyele Sowore to come out and revealed their own struggles and the roles they played in the democratic governance they laid claim today?
God bless Asiwaju for his doggedness! You will succeed

The military's 1993 propaganda tried to paint Abiola as a coward who fled but his triumphant return proved them liars.

Watching these clips today, it's chilling how they manipulated parents' fears while Abiola risked everything for democracy.

Tinubu's early interviews show how far we've come... and how much we've forgotten.

Reading through the interview, one can't help but see the hypocrisy. All the things he condemned and complained about he has increased in multiple folds in his presidency
Most spectacularly, there is no doubt he joined the struggle for June 12 but what is most important is his motivation for joining the struggle
It is just like the whole fuel subsidy thing. Most of the motivations are self-serving which is why under a man who claimed to fight for democracy, governors are being suspended and the NASS and SC are subsumed under the executive
What is also not in doubt is his closeness with IBB. Even now that he has taken office, IBB is not being asked to account for his role in June 12. Instead, he attended IBB's book launch to whitewash IBB's ignoble role in the matter. Let's not kid ourselves. The whole talk of democracy and democratic credentials are a farce!!

Why should he be made a mod?
Because he is spinning propaganda and pushing narratives?
I beg to disagree
We have too many jaundiced mods already in politics thread. A neutral mod will better serve the section

Lol. You have more hope of seeing flying Pigs than a mentee of Atiku or Obi.

What the poster you responded does not understand, because he is a typical Obidient, is that poltical mentee means an individual mentored by a leader who has then gone on to be great himself/herself as per the guidance and influence of his/her mentor.

That is what we need to see with Atiku and Obi. They should point at even one leader today, as Tinubu literally has thousands, they moulded into leadership efficacy and greatness.

Na beans some still call themselves Awoist, Batist, Thatcherites (after Margaret Thatcher of the UK) etal till today?

leaders of substance are followed iconically by others who want to be leaders and therefore wish to learn from those who truly symbolise exemplary leadership.

A fundamental truism those who follow a shallow Born-to-rule Dubai dweller and glorified petty trader cannot accept.

Bro look at Nkrumaism below same as we can all reel off Tinubu's constant and dedicated political ideology that has typified his career and leadership.

What can anyone say Atiku and Obi stand for, after more than two decades in politics and public administration for both, other than political oloshoism ideology?

Re: Throwback Interviews Of President Bola Tinubu In 1993 And 2012 (Video) by WizardOfNG: 2:29pm On Jun 23, 2025
Fellow Batists, I will reveal a simple and flawless test that will always help you to understand Tinubu is a true democrat plus lover of Nigeria and what is in her best interest.

Simply Google major events in the history of Nigeria that needed true leaders to step up lest Nigeria disintegrate.

You will note Tinubu is never absent while Obi, Atiku, Sule Lamido and many others today , who are but mere pretenders to the crown, were hiding or totally disinterested as they had nothing to gain fighting for ordinary Nigerians.

The GEJ they claim Tinubu hates and undermined, history reveals Tinubu stood up for when the North were determined not to hand over power to him when we all knew Yar Adua was not coming back.

Simply google "Tinubu demand jonathan be sworn in as substantive president".

The link and first image below shows one of the hits. Do same for Atiku, Obi , Sule Lamido, El Rufai etal. Let us see what is revealed.

Do similar for the period when Fulanis herdmen dey kpai Nigerians play under Buhari. You will see link 2 and image two showing Tinubu tackling Buhari to say "open grazing no longer tenable".

Where were the voices of others, to include Atiku and Obi, who now wish to revise history to portray themselves messiahs, saviour and angels while trying to demonize Tinubu falsely and shamlessly? We must all learn from history or repeat its mistakes.

Tinubu deserves to be president for 20yrs. He fought for it. Worked for it. And doing fantastically well as president.

I have been saying this.

All the show Tinubu put out on Jun 12, 2025 was nothing but a charade to fool Nigerians who are not aware.

Bola Tinubu was part of those who supported IBB's annulment of the June 12 election.

His own godmother, Hajia Mogaji was organising Lagos market women to come to Abuja to pledge support for Babangida.

Tinubu was actively hand-in-glove with Babangida. NADECO was postulation formation to fight Abacha after he lobbied Abacha twice for a political position and Abacha declined.

1. The first was begging Abacha to make him the deputy Sole Administration to the then Lagos state Sole Administrator Col. Buba Maruwa (now the D.G, NDLEA). Abacha told him that his regime has no place for the position for state deputy sole administrator.

2. He went back to Aso rock again few weeks later to plead with Abacha to make him the commissioner for Finance, Lagos state. Abacha looked at him straight in the face and told him, let this be the last time he will ever step his foot in Aso Rock. Because he saw Tinubu as a judas to his principal, MKO Abiola who was wallowing in prison by the same Abacha.

After facing this rejections, he went and join NADECCO to be shouting June 12 upandan.

Upon sensing that Abacha was targeting the real NADECCO members both from the North, SW, SS and SE, he escaped through the borders to the UK when no one was chasing him and became a full member of NADECO.

They can only fool the gullible ones, even Tinubu would be disappointed after reading this

There is no senior associate in any big 4 accounting firm whose bonus is 850k USD even today. Tinubu is nothing but a liar. I worked for a big 4 in Nigeria and Canada plus i have friends working in big 4s in USA
my mum's gratuity as a level 13 retiree in 2007 was 3.7m.

Today, core civil servants no longer receive gratuity. After so much struggle since 2009, the government is trying to reintroduce it as the total annual gross salary of your last salary grade. Currently, level 13/4 takes home about 205k monthly as net salary, so let's assume gross is 260k (which is a very generous figure), total annual gross is less than 3.5m. So less than 3.5m is the proposed gratuity (yet to be implemented) for a core civil servant who retires on level 13 step 4.

So if my mum tells you she earned 3.7m as gratuity 18 years ago, you will call her a liar because your dad did not earn up to that on same level 18 years later?

I want to believe you are a smart person and as such shouldn't jump into hasty generalisations and conclusions.

Chief MKO Abiola left Nigeria unanounced on August 3rd, 1993. His team said that he had gone to seek international support.

I remember that period very well. The Federal Military Government ran an advert campaign on the NTA Network Service and the campaign was targetted at parents and guardians. They implied that Chief Abiola had fled abroad and that parents and guardians should not allow their children to suffer and die on the streets (protest) for someone that had fled abroad. They said that Chief Abiola and his family would not join the protesters on the streets.

Chief Abiola returned to Nigeria on September 23rd, 1993 and Channels TV and other media houses interviewed Senator Bola Tinubu after Chief Abiola's return.

The first clip in this video is from September 1993. The second clip is from the early 2000s.

SeunOkin Channels tv @seunokin





Photo 1) This picture was taken when Bola Tinubu was installed as the Akinrogun of Lagos by Oba Adeyinka Oyekan in 1992. You can see Oba Oyekan (standing at the center), and Chief MKO Abiola (standing to the right) as the chieftaincy title was conferred on Tinubu.

Photo 2) General Sani Abacha and his followers in the military (like Oladipo Diya) had promised Chief Abiola and his followers (like Senator Bola Tinubu) that they would take over power from Chief Ernest Shonekan and hand over to Chief Abiola. This photo was taken at Defence House, Glover Road, Ikoyi, during the discussions.
If only Abiola knew that Abacha had other plans..
