With current trends in Nigeria, It's self evident that Tinubu did a hostile takeover of the Nigerian state. A feat Pablo Escobar dreamt of in Columbia. The similarities are so striking. Tinubu understudied Pablo. |

Pablo Escobar once famously planned to become Colombia's president. While he eventually failed, the ultimate Narco Trafficker's dream came to fruition in Africa's most populous country"From Nigeria's Osun State to Chicago, USA, via a stopover in Gary, Indiana, and back to Lagos in Nigeria, this is the story of how the bagman for a 1990's Chicago drug ring has become Nigeria's president" |

Trouble with the law: They both got in trouble with the law when it comes to cocaine trafficking and money laundering. Pablo Escobar is the most famous drug lord whose fame and notoriety will never be forgotten in the history books. On the other hand Bola Tinubu got in trouble in United States in 1992 for receiving proceeds of drug trafficking paid into his account to the tune of $460k from two drug barons who were directors in his company Campass Finance and was charged with money laundering and forfeited the amount, and hence why he gained his famous nickname Bobo Chicago.Nigeria is really in deep shit. Every instrument of state is in his pockets. |

[b]Politics: Pablo Escobar contested for the Columbia Congree to gain immunity from prosecution and won in 1982. He was eventually expelled two years later and lost his immunity. Tinubu began his foray into politics shortly after he forfeited $460k in United States in 1992 for drug trafficking and money laundering in 1992 and would later govern Lagos state from 1999-2007. They both understand the power structure of their respective geographical area and understand the power blocks:market women,NURTW,traditional rulers,religious network and compromised security agents and how to appease them to maintain their stranglehold on power.[/b] |

Management Style: They both believe and practice the mafia management style in managing people and resources. They believe in godfatherism and have underbosses and capos to carry out orders. Tinubu has been the godfather of Lagos state since he left office in 2007 and anoints and disposes leaders as he pleases and has MC Oluomo the Capo to carry out orders through his foot soldiers in the streets, who come in very handy during elections. |

There's freedom of speech... No one can guarantee freedom after speech. The internet is not as anonymous as you may think. Funny enough, it'll be hard to see any lawyer to defend you when the time comes because they know the weight of your baseless allegations. Some of them will use you for PR for a while then quietly withdraw because they know it's not worth it. A word is enough for the wise. |
