LET TINUBU BE…
By Prof. Michael Ogueke


February 3, 2022

I don’t know why those from South-east and South-south where Tinubu did not rule as governor are those that abuse Tinubu most whenever his name is been mentioned. Some of them couldn’t even their governors between 1999-2007 again but Tinubu’s name always ring bell in their ears.


Tinubu’s immunity expired in 2007 and PDP left govt in 2015. Tinubu was without immunity for good 8 years under PDP, yet, Obasanjo,Yardua and Jonathan had nothing to rope him in as a criminal. Even Nuhu Ribadu did not probe him under Obasanjo. Three (3) EFCC chairmen (Ribadu, Farida Waziri and Lamorde) couldn’t trace anything incriminating against Tinubu between 2007 — 2015 but you want him probed now. Has he taken any contract from state or federal govt that he has not executed? Has anybody reported him for financial crime? You always refer to Tinubu’s companies as if he had no means of livelihood before becoming governor.

Tinubu was an Executive Director/board member of Mobil Oil Producing before he ed politics. Obasanjo and Atiku established private universities as sitting President and Vice President. Obasanjo established Presidential Library as a sitting President. Atiku sold shares of companies to himself as VP and Chairman of Privatisation Council. Peter Obi took state money to family business as Governor of Anambra. Yet, these people are your heroes. When other former governors were busy shipping their states resources abroad & developing foreign economies, Tinubu was busy establishing his businesses in Nigeria. Those companies are employing several hundreds of bread winners in Nigeria.

He met Lagos IGR at about N600m per month and he left it at N12 – 14bn per month. When Obasanjo seized Lagos allocations despite Supreme Court judgement against Obasanjo, Tinubu was paying salaries and pensions regularly for three and half years that it lasted. It was Yardua that paid the allocation to Fasola’s govt. Tinubu used his initiative to create LASTMA and Obasanjo in his copy cat attitude moved ahead to create FERMA.

Those of you that always criticise Tinubu because of envious hate, when will you start criticising Ikpeazu who has not been paying salaries and pensions Abia with no single project to show in Abia. Why did you not say Tinubu was corrupt in 2011 when he ed Goodluck Jonathan? Did He not win Jonathan govt at code of conduct tribunal when he was charged? Tinubu this and Tinubu that as if he is your Governor or President. If you are abusing Tinubu because he is sponsoring APC, Is Atiku not using money to sponsor PDP and his Presidential project? Where is he also getting the money from? Where did he get all the dollars he spent during APC Presidential primary in 2014 and PDP presidential primary of 2018?

Tinubu is no longer a Governor and neither is he the President but he is your problem. When Tinubu was busy building his political structures since 2003 after PDP rigging in south-west, Where were you? When he gave Atiku his party to use for his Presidential project in 2006/2007, where were you? When he was busy building bridges across 6 geo political zones, where were you? In 2015, you all mocked when Ahmed Lawan and Gbajabiamila lost out the leadership of national assembly to Saraki and Dogara. He was not disturbed. He moved on till he was successful in 2019.

When he was bringing up Babachir Lawal and Boss Mustapha (former and current SGF) in ACN, where were you? When he was doing these, Bode George was calling him a local champion but now the local champion in his tenacity has built a national ruling party, you are envious. Tell us your governor that performed better than Tinubu. Your Peter Obi couldn’t build APGA in South-east. Instead, he defected to PDP to kill APGA.

Let Tinubu Be! He is not your problem!! Your past & present governors are your problem!!!

God bless d writer of this content,I don't understand how a whole region will have a combination of

Peter Obi
Ex convict orji uzor kalu
Okorocha
T.A orji
Ngige
Ikpeazu kerosene
Obiano drunkard
Hopeless
N all other useless leaders but they believe tinubu is their problem.

Where were they when tinubu was building ACN to a national party?
Where were they when tinubu was forming alliance?
They called south west names because they rejected Jonathan but ignore d role south west played in 2011.
We were not betrayal in 2011 cos we followed Jonathan but we became betrayal in 2015 cos we follow buhari.

When people were working,forming alliances n building bridges u called them slaves, ass licker n all sorts of derogatory names but when it's time for them to reap d reward of their labour u it is your turn so they should give all they have laboured to u cos it's your turn

did yorubas sign agreement with u that they must always do whatever u do?
D same yorubas/tinubu ed Jonathan in 2011,y don't u call them betrayals then?

It's annoying when u are being mischievous with your political analysis,it's like u have forgotten this is democracy.

Yorubas/tinubu doesn't owe u any explanation as to y they made their choices.

Yoruba human

Why should Tinubu be..
when a criminal, a common thief , a druggie and a legit lout .. placed himself on pedals to contest for the post of Nigeria President.. people should not ask questions.. and reject it..
Only Southwest known for ing louts .. from Tinubu to Mc olumo , to auxiliary.. back to Adedibu..
and still be proud of ing this himans and yet turn back to claim sophistication grin

Imagine the Yoruba hatred ..

Obi is now mentioned .. along side with Obasanjo , Atiku grin
What a foolishness

Btw..

Why are yoruba people not writing petitions upon petitions to get peter Obi arrested . And imprisoned for the said crimes and looting Yoruba people said he committed ?
Since he’s not as powerful as Tinubu that has been docked .. neither powerful like Obasanjo that spend years in prison

Peter is a nobody in Nigeria politcs according to yoruba people .. so being jailed ain’t a hard one

Guess if Yoruba people are not serious with jailing peter and making all noise about him..

Then they should shut the propaganda.. becauE it’s not worth it

Apc came to government on integrity and noise on corruption

Two governors are in jail .. what’s happening to their corruption mantra ..

Tinubu must contest and nobody will free him.. h must be thoroughly scrutinized

Yoruba May worship their thief caomfortably .. but Nigerians are not all Yoruba people ..

Seun .. why is it that only Yoruba people are campaigning for Tinubu and osibanjo

When we go see .. same from Northerners..

They did worse things to Buhari, called him and his wife names, released a documentary on him to dent his image but that didn't stop him from defeating GEJ to become president..

If Tinubu's Northern friends are determined to come through for him, then he is Nigeria's next president.. forget haters in South and some unintelligent Yorubas that are being used to attack and write articles against him.

They're only slandering Tinubu because of Atiku. We all know that it's nearly impossible for Peter Obi to become Nigeria president. Does Peter Obi even got what it to take to win PDP primary?, hell no. Whether you agree or not, Tinubu is the most popular and feasible presidential candidate among the current candidates that have declared interest. For you to become the next president, you must beat Tinubu for that to happen.
