In my April 10, 2021, column titled “Tinubu: A Presidential Disaster Waiting to Happen?” I itted that Bola Tinubu often benefits “from the professionally dexterous mediation of his inventively resourceful media team” and that he “has one of the, if not the, most sophisticated propagandists and mind managers in Nigeria.”

But amid the avalanche of darts being thrown at him from every angle since he declared his intention to run for president, his otherwise active and manipulative PR team has been uncharacteristically quiet and inept. 

Only Tinubu’s army of paid and unpaid trolls traverse social media spaces looking for whom to curse and insult for opposing their political god.

I suspect that his PR/media team’s ineptitude is intentional and strategic because any response to the host of question marks hanging around Tinubu’s neck will provoke more questions, which might lead to the unravelling of the mask around him.

Take, for example, Tinubu’s former press secretary Segun Ayobolu’s recent claim that Tinubu didn’t attend secondary school after his primary school education “because of his poverty.”

Well, the Tinubu family in Lagos, which he claims he is part of even though a segment of the family disowned him in 2007, isn't poor by any definition of "poor." Nor is Alhaja Habiba Mogaji whom he claims was his mother. She was well-to-do by the mid-1960s when Tinubu was supposed to be out of primary school.

Add to this the fact that he doesn't speak Yoruba with a Lagos accent, according to Lagos natives, and we have a dead giveaway that his identity isn't what he claims it is. 

Who are his real parents who were so poor they couldn’t send him to secondary school in the 1960s?

There are at least three branches of the Tinubu family in Lagos that we know of. The most populous branch, which traces patrilineal roots to a Kanurized Shuwa Arab man called Muhammad “Momodu” Bugara, which has no blood ties to Madam Efunroye Tinubu with whom Bugara had a childless marriage, disowned him in 2007.

The two other branches of the Tinubu family in Lagos either trace descent to Madam Efunroye Tinubu’s Egba relatives in Abeokuta or to her slaves in nineteenth-century Lagos, according to Oladipo Yemitan, Madam Tinubu’s biographer.

 As far as we know, none of the descendants of Madam Efunroye Tinubu’s Abeokuta relatives or her slaves would be so poor as to be unable to afford secondary school education in the 1960s when Bola Tinubu would have completed his primary school education going by his official age.

It’s also possible that declaring his intention to run for president early and his media/PR team’s strategic silence over enduring questions regarding the mysterious gaps in his profile are calculated to allow his opponents to exhaust their missiles against him before the general election.

Nigerians and, frankly, most human beings get easily fatigued by continuous expression of outrage over any issue. The calculation of the Tinubu team is probably that by next year most voters would have been so inundated by stories and commentaries about Bola Tinubu’s fraud that they would tune out. 

Of course, hoping that voters would be so jaded by continuous emphasis on a candidate’s shady past that they would look to other issues to influence their electoral choices is a big risk. Some ethical stains are inerasable.

".....It’s distressing that even otherwise clear-sighted people who recognize that the APC is a clear present danger to Nigeria, that Tinubu and his political creation-Osinbajo, are core constituents of the conscienceless gang of villains that got us to where we are now are seduced by the rhetoric of inevitability of APC’s self-succession.

Let’s not allow APC to propagandize us into accepting that their internal politics is our national politics. We should instead be asking them to for the incalculable injuries they’ve collectively inflicted on our economy, our freedoms, our national emotions, and for reversing whatever little progress we were making before they took over.."

No decent country on earth would reward the gang of incompetent know-nothings who presided over such an irrecoverable state of devastation and destruction of a country with continuity in governance."

A Tinubu as president is really gonna be another mega era in corruption as far as Nigeria is concerned. All the owomida NURTW miscreants and thugs killing themselves in Idumota and other parts of Lagos will be unleashed in full force.

If someone like Buhari could win elections in Nigeria, any bastard can be president.

Tinubu lived a life of lie and think getting billions will turn lie to truth.. like he said he plan and anticipated all and blah’s

And this Farooq go dey referred himself as a professor?

A professor of controversies?

How is it possible Tinubu didn’t attend a secondary school? This kind of lie is impossible to digest.

Same propaganda stunt they used to repackaged Buhari and foist the catastrophe who bastardized this country today.It won't work and should not work this time around except if Nigerians are cursed with retrograde amnesia.

Nigeria bought Buhari based on integrity and his honesty.. even tho we know..

What is Tinubu selling to Nigerians .. he’s godfatherism in Lagos and yorubaland?

Some bastards really geh levels .. some Na real bastards ..

Tinubu alleged that he attended Government College Ibadan without stating the period.No alumini of that school have ever come out to say they know him till date.

Tinubu's presidential ambition is like Adamu's private jet.

Buhari played the masses game using the fake integrity toga & got away with it. Then the bullion vans man of Burdillion also foolishly thinks he can do likewise & get away with it. I guess he will be surprised what the masses will do to him. They have suffered in the hands of APC.

He should better come clear himself and say the truth. I hope we won’t be seeing another case of forged WAEC certificate

Maybe in your dreams and not in 2022 Nigeria ..

Is a dream or hallucinations of his Yoruba worshippers

So start waking up to Nigeria of today... anything is not possible ..

A man who promised to recruit 100 million youths into the Nigerian army and feed them cassava, corn and agbado in the morning and Yam and Elubô in the afternoon.

Tinubu cannot cheat nature. No amount of tight jeans and trainers will conceal his old age.

Affliction shall not arise the second time.

Nwa

No! He won't! This is what the writer was saying-these politicians think their dirty pasts will just be wished away or fade out due to the gullibility of the poor downtrodden masses which they always use the weaponization of poverty on.

Exactly how the promoted and foist Buhari. you were part of them back then but thank goodness you have redeemed yourself.

Nigerians are wiser now.

Personally I’m happy for 2015 mistake because it really taught Nigerians a great deal.

Right now, no Politician will ever come to tell us the kind of lies that APC told in 2015 without getting stoned.

Nigerians have now learnt to demand and scrutinized any politician’s pedigree and antecedent before considering to give him a chance.

God used 2015 to teach us a bitter lesson.

Only that Tinubu urchins do not possess the mental capacity to learn it or they wouldn’t be projecting Tinubu.

Just hope and pray that Nigerians have truly been redeemed from electing useless leaders for political peanuts when they weaponize poverty against them. See who the APC-UK is promoting as president in this era. What a disgrace!

He didn't.
In those days,you could just sit for GCE etc without having attended secondary school.
That's y he initially claimed he attended govt college Ibadan.
When that lie was bursted,he claimed it was Senator Tokumbo Afikuyomi that filled d INEC form for him and made d mistake,then started claiming St Joseph college in Lagos.
The man na living fraud.

What age did Mr Bullion van entered Chicago state university and what year?

From this pic, is it not obvious this man is well over 85 years old?

Look at his mosquito legs and exhausted body, will this man be capable of lasting one week in Asso rock?

Even Obj is more agile than this bullion van Alhaji

What kind of PR can they do on a decayed product?

Practically impossible....!! Bubu was a mistake Nigeria would never make again....!!!

BAT with brown teeth Nigerians absolutely like bad leadership

Tinubu did you guys strong thing or Is Tinubu omnipresent in you guys medulla oblongata ?

To the extent that a whole Ohaneze Ndigbo has to write a letter to citizen Tinubu, who is not an elected official nor has he declared his intention to contest for the highest office in Nigeria.
