Nigeria in Trouble!… I Never Knew Anything about Tinubu until…
By Tai Emeka Obasi
In one of the most celebrated James Hadley Chase masterpieces, he entitled it, You Never Know With Women. In everything about Nigerian politics, including all extremes of bribery, incitements, ethnic profiling, brutal violence, religious/ethnic bigotry, perjury, identity fraud, forgery, rigging and unimaginable levels of criminality, you never know with Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu. I used to believe that the ‘president-elect’ was only guilty of using Lagos State fraudulently and massively acquired fortunes to put his cronies in national critical political positions.
But I have to confess that I didn’t know anything about the man they call Jagaban until he became the APC presidential flag bearer. I thought his aspiration was over when President Muhammadu Buhari’s body language before APC primary indicated another interest. Nicking that ticket despite his very glaring deteriorating health conditions awakened my curiosity. Even at that, I equally never anticipated anything drug trafficking could be linked to him until that David Hundeyin’s expose. May God continue to protect and bless that guy.
Now, it’s all scary, very scary. Buhari could be a saint after all if… The diplomatic passport expose has further revealed Tinubu’s sinister nature, the source of his bottomless pool of resources that could subdue Prof Godwin Emefiele, Buhari, Prof Mahmood Yakubu and counting…! Unless there is something special in the CJN, Justice Olukayade Ariwoola to stop this presumably deadly cartel, we are all doomed! This is no longer just about HE Peter Obi’s petition. Every influential Nigerian should rise up now to save this nation!
