You don't know this attention seeking guy who want to die ontop Tinubu matter?. His alternate is RuudVan something. Meanwhile, the Governors of his potor region are feeding his parents in the village with kerosene while some had mortgaged the future of his unborn generation with Pandora loot.
Recycling old news with different headlines can only make his life most boring.

...and regardless of publication date, can you challenge the veracity of the story?

Defender of thieves!
Dont mind these clowns that will sell their generation for rice and groundnut oil. They want to extend the slavery and colonization from Badagry to the whole Nigeria.

They want to turn everyone in the country to almajiris, while one man collects 10% of our tax revenue.

Politics › Bloomberg: Lawsuit Against Nigeria Presidential Candidate Tinubu Aims To Settle by swaggerjack(op):

Adversaries in a Nigerian lawsuit in which a leading presidential candidate is accused of secretly controlling the private company that collects taxes in the state he once ran are discussing an out-of-court settlement.

Oladapo Apara, a founder of Alpha Beta Consulting LLP, alleges that Bola Tinubu concealed his control of the firm. In the early 2000s, as governor of Lagos state, Tinubu awarded the newly established ABC a contract to collect taxes in Nigeria’s commercial hub that it still holds today.


Apara filed his suit against ABC and Tinubu in June. Ahead of a court hearing scheduled for March 24, Apara and ABC are discussing a possible out-of-court resolution to the dispute, the plaintiff’s lawyer, Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, said by email. The settlement talks still require Tinubu’s “input” to be “meaningful and conclusive,” according to Adegboruwa.

An accountant who says he “solely conceived” of ABC, Apara alleges that Tinubu directed him to transfer 70% of the company’s shares to two individuals of the then-governor’s choosing, according to the plaintiff’s statement of claim. Apara said he did this as a “pre-condition” for Tinubu’s approval of a project to improve the tracking and management of Lagos state’s revenue.

Tinubu led Nigeria’s wealthiest state from 1999 to 2007, and has always held “a controlling interest” in ABC, Apara alleges in court filings, describing it as “extortion” and an “abuse of office.”



Through a spokesman, Tinubu declined to comment on Apara’s “unsubstantiated allegations” while the court case proceeds. Eventually, “the true facts will be established and justice will prevail,” he said.

The spokesman sent Bloomberg three undated statements signed by ABC.

The statements claim Apara had spread “false allegations” in a “desperate attempt to conceal and distract attention from his own wrongdoing and misconduct that led to his termination” from ABC. “Apara’s grief arises from his removal as managing director of Alpha Beta for fraud and other serious indiscretions,” one said.

Akin Doherty, ABC’s current managing director who is named as a defendant alongside the company and Tinubu, didn’t respond to a request for comment.

Since winning the first election to govern Lagos state following the restoration of democracy in Nigeria, Tinubu has remained hugely influential, especially in the southwest of the country, and played a central role in the merger of opposition parties that created the All Progressives Congress in 2013. Two years later, the APC won nationwide polls that brought President Muhammadu Buhari to office and pushed the People’s Democratic Party out of power after 16 years.


Tinubu, who is the APC’s national leader, declared his intention to run for the presidency in an election due to take place next February. He is the most prominent politician so far to announce plans to seek the ruling party’s nomination to succeed Buhari, who is nearing the end of his second term.

Since becoming the state’s tax collector, ABC helped Lagos’ government to increase its annual revenue to more than 300 billion naira ($718 million) in 2019 from about 10 billion naira in 2002, according to the lawsuit that Apara submitted to the state’s high court. The company is entitled to a commission of 10% of the total sum collected, the complaint said.

From 2018, Tinubu and Doherty “have assumed firm control of the financial management” of ABC and excluded Apara from its affairs, the company’s founder alleged. At Tinubu’s direction, ABC has denied Apara his 30% share of profits since 2010, according to the complaint, which estimated the firm’s earnings from its commission at about 150 billion naira over the same period. ABC has also paid millions of dollars out of the company in “suspicious monetary transfers” that “erode” the dividend due to Apara, the complaint said.


Doherty served as a senior Lagos state financial official when Tinubu was governor.

Sworn affidavit from Dapo Apara as well before Lagos State High Court.

Which 99%? There are already 5 out of 10 Nigerians calling him Judas. If he could do this to his benefactor, why won't he betray the trust of Nigerians when he has power? One thing about treachery is that it is an habit. There is no going back when you cultivate it. You do not understand the Omoluabi ethos so I do not blame you. Like I said, we were all brought up differently.

The whole Alphabeta superstory has never been substantiated or proven. Why didn't the PDP nab him all those years of controlling the EFCC? Until it is proven, it remains a Beer Parlor story. Btw, it is hypocritical to call a beneficiary of an allegedly corrupt man, a saint. Both the thief and beneficiaries of robbery are equal in the sight of the Law and God.
Out of court settlement

Siwel25:
Bullshit! Tinubu could have used any other Professor of Law and paid him if that is your point.

Who else would have nominated Osinbajo as VP under a Party he formed with a few allies?

What Jagaban did is rare in this part of the world. Someone like Atiku would rather bring down the entire party than allow another man fill his slot. Enough of this justifications cos it is not going to change the facts. Tinubu picked only Osinbajo when asked to nominate 3 candidates. In life, God uses people to lift you up and it is important never to hurt those people after getting to where you dream of. I do not know what kind of upbringing some Nairalanders have but that is part of the ethos of 'omoluabi'.. Osinbajo himself knows it which is why it took him time to come out.
Which rubbish ethos?99% of Nigerians will choose Osibanjo over Tinubu any day even though he aided him in the state capture of Lagos.


Osibanjo will not allocate 10% of FIRS tax revenue to himself or corner oil blocks if he becomes President.

Nigerians remember vividly a certain criminal that drove a fully loaded bullion van into his residence a day before a presidential election so as the bribe people with the contents of the van.
We need South Africa Commission of Inquiry into state capture that jailed Jacob Zuma. Public Office is not meant for self enrichment something that has been drilled into all South African public office holders.

Politics › Loyalty: Osibanjo Helped Tinubu In State Capture Of 10% Tax Through Alpha Beta by swaggerjack(op):
Yemi Osibanjo was part of the committee when he was Commissioner of Justice that enslaved Lagos to Tinubu Alpha Beta at 10% commission of states taxes. According to former Managing Director of Alpha Beta,Dapo Apara, the company was registered the same year it received the monopoly with a sharing percentage of 70:30 in favour of Tinubu who hid his ownership through fronts in 2003

In 2014 Tinubu removed Dapo Apara from Alpha Beta and took over 100% control and continues to enjoy 10% of Lagos state taxes remitted to his account each month
.


Why are TMC urchins now turning against him and calling him disloyal for declaring his intention for contesting for the presidency.
