PoliticsRe: Why Tinubu Forfeited $460,000 In US — APC Tells Court by PulaPower: 6:47am On Apr 12, 2023
lexy2014:
If you aren't defending, then what are you clarifying?

How did Tinubu come by the $460k that he forfeited?

Why does the "clarification" admit that Tinubu forfeited the $460k?

Although not convicted of any crime, why did the US govt ask Tinubu to forfeit the money?
I'm clarifying that a civil forfeiture is different from criminal justice financial obligations. This was why tinubu wasn't charged for any wrong doing..

The money he forfeited isn't his own personal money. IRS traced the money and found it was money from drug proceedings..

Tinubu was an accountant in USA with many clients. Any of his clients might have used his account without telling him the source of the money..

IRS forwarded the case to DEA/FBI, both found tinubu not to be involved in the drug whatever. This was why tinubu was never arrested, no indicted, nor charged!

The case was closed after forfeiting the money and it ends their..

If you buy a stolen phone in USA unknowingly, you'll forfeit it but won't be charged.

Infact, I read a case of a woman that embezzled money to finance her kids wedding. All the clothings they bought with the money were forfeited grin. E no concern USA say them don wear ham before. But that doesn’t mean everyone that wore the cloths the woman bought were charged. They just forfeited and that’s all!

SmartPolician:
Nobody plans to stop him from being president; he should just go and answer the questions hanging around his neck in court. Is that too much to ask?

By the way, how come nobody is talking about Atiku and PDP lawsuit? Everyone is only interested in Obi's lawsuit? cheesy
Nah who Dey make noise?

Please stop this! Lawyer or not we saw court documents and prosecution stating that the forfeiture was for heroine related case.... Stop showing US consulate letters and IGP they are not concrete evidence. If you guys wana do a good job, subpoena the FBI or the Chicago state Court for unclassified docs they will release to you with joy. I have helped you paste it below, pls can you or can you not see narcotics trafficking as reason for the forfeiture? The US govt also gave then the chance to come dispute but he never came cos he knew in the 90s racism was still an ish and he's black ass would have been incarcerated.
I also heard Kevin moss is coming to testify cheesy pray it's not true, cos that would be the final nail to the coffin. The judges will avoid a wrong judgement like plague.
Still the same thing - forfeiture!

he was because the charge were stated in court and the settlement was done by the court to avoid jail.

The courts have the records of the case.
Lol..

Settlement to avoid jail.. You people claimed tinubu was into drugs. Now you’re claiming he settled the court to avoid jail..

But tinubu wasn’t charged sha. Goodluck!

This is even unnecessary.

The excerpt below should be enough clarification:



It shows it’s a civil case and in saner climes, this petition would’ve been thrown out of court.

I think they’re more interested in character assassination and smear campaign - since they really know they have no case.
Confirm!

Remove Nuhu Ribadu from there because he now plays partisan politics. Dude was the presidential flag bearer of Tinubu's ACN in 2011. The Ribadu who chaired EFCC and today's Ribadu are not the same.

As for Tinubu, he forfeited the money through plea bargaining. There's no way a legit hustler will forfeit over #300 million on drug-related offenses if he is not involved.

Bone of contention is..

Then,OBJ had no solid direct evidence as it is now. Was more like a rumour at that time.. Now,all the documents regarding the criminal drug case are intact & dug out with witnesses in line. Don't try to compare this to obj cos u will be making huge mistakes on that basis.
Lol..

Every documents you guys are spreading today has been on internet for long..

The bone of contention is your president elect was never indicted nor convicted..
PoliticsRe: INEC To Tribunal: Obi's Petition Is Abusive, Incompetent And Should Be Dismissed by PulaPower: 6:50pm On Apr 11, 2023
derecho:
One thing is clear,
LP's petition is the most difficult petition that INEC/Tinubu's SANs have encountered.
It took them 21 days to write this hogwash.
This would have made sense if they replied the 2nd day.

It's just like the case of a boastful Student who believes he can solve any question posed to him in a one-hour test. After reading the question about 10times and for shame of submitting a blank sheet, decided to start writing nonsense about 5mins to the end of the test AND even asking for extra sheet.

How would it be heard that Woke Olanipekun SAN and 15 other SANs couldn't reply meaningfully?

Imagine them speaking as judges.
How can you say a petition is incompetent blablabla?

Go and prove that it is.
They don’t need to reply. What’s their to reply? Is social media court of law? Obi already filed his petition and the rest would be solved in court. You won’t hear a word from Wole until matter starts..
PoliticsRe: INEC To Tribunal: Obi's Petition Is Abusive, Incompetent And Should Be Dismissed by PulaPower: 6:48pm On Apr 11, 2023
It further said that the ground of the petition that Tinubu was not elected by majority of lawful votes cast as contained in Paragraph 20(iii) of the petition was defective for failure to plead the alleged unlawful votes to be deducted and/or lawful votes to be credited to the petitioners.

Infact, it’s one of the most useless petition ever grin

It’s not a defense. It’s a clarification for the misinformed..

What you people are doing is even petty, compare to what Obj did. Nothing wey Obj no use Ribadu try ontop tinubu matter, yet they found nothing..

Your president-elect has never been convicted for any crime..

PoliticsRe: Why Tinubu Forfeited $460,000 In US — APC Tells Court by PulaPower:
Furthermore, the release from forfeiture of other monies in the account the subject of the proceedings in Case No: 93C4483; in excess of one million dollars and for the benefit of the named beneficiary K.O Tinubu though not the account holder, less forfeited sum of $460,000.00 (Four Hundred and Sixty Thousand United States Dollars) is a manifest affirmation that the case was not a criminal trial and the fund forfeited was not a fine imposed as a punishment for a criminal conviction of any person- let alone the 2nd Respondent.

“The disqualification factors as stipulated by the Constitution only conceives of a conviction sentence or fine involving dishonesty or fraud or contravention of the Code of Conduct as found by a Court of the law of competent jurisdiction or Tribunal in Nigeria,” it added.

Tinubu was never indicted nor convicted for any drug related crime or any other crime in USA..

Two different dates appeared on the summon.

2: Docket date July 199..... Fussy.
I want to ascertain If someone traffic heroin or Cocaine in United States within or across city line, if caught , will such a person be ask to forfeit a part or whole of such illegal activities without going to jail, is it true? Just asking

For example 4grs of illicit drug like heroin in Texas is a serious felony offense that may attract jail term.
Tinubu was never convicted. He never had any issues with DEA, FBI, Police. He was never in court for any drug trial or whatsoever.
