Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for president, has been characterized as a wicked guy by `Atiku’ Abubakar’s (PDP) campaign team. Atiku also said in a statement that Tinubu was disowned and until Tinubu shows him his family members, his (Atiku) statement stands true a.
In a statement released on Sunday, December 18, 2022, the Atiku campaign claimed that Tinubu had too many demons to let him become the next president of Nigeria.
Furthermore, it was said that Tinubu and his agents have shied away from participating in open discussions in order to prevent the exposure of his many secrets.
The statement was signed by Phrank Shaibu, Special Assistant to `Atiku’ Abubakar on Public Communication, who claimed that Asiwaju Tinubu was denied recognition in 2007 by Abdulrafiu Babatunde Tinubu, one of the known eldest members of the Tinubu extended family and the head of the Lagos State civil service at the time.
He claimed that a book written by the former head of the service listed every member of the Tinubu dynasty from the 19th century to the present, except for Tinubu, whose name was conspicuously absent. The author claimed that anyone whose information is missing from the book is not an actual member of the Tinubu family.
In the statement, Shaibu noted that names like “Bola” should have prefixes.
The statement reads: “The wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion, says the Holy Bible.
“This perhaps explains why the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has refused to open himself up for scrutiny but continues to evade debates, non-partisan town hall meetings, and live interviews.
“Tinubu’s entire life and persona is based on falsehood and thus he cannot address these questions hence his decision to continue to run all over the place. But these controversies did not begin today.
“In 2007 a former head of the civil service of Lagos State, Abdulrafiu Babatunde Tinubu, one of the eldest members of the Tinubu family, published a book titled, “Onijumu Wura: The Tinubu Dynasty of Kakawa, Lagos (The Tree)”
“Abdulrafiu included the names of all members of the Tinubu dynasty from the 19th century till date. Conspicuously missing from the book was the name of Bola Tinubu. The author claimed anyone whose name was not listed in the book was not an authentic member of the Tinubu family.”
