Fani-Kayode Recalls What Happened When Oppositions Of Bola Tinubu Erroneously Paint Him As A Drug Baron
Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a former Governor of Lagos State and National Leader of the All Progressives Congress is one of the leading presidential candidates ahead of the 2023 general elections.
Femi Fani-Kayode, a former Minister of Aviation, while reacting to a report stated that the political opponents erroneously painted Tinubu as a drug baron years back but the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) never charged him with any drug offence and the case did not go on trial.
Femi Fani-Kayode added that In 2003, ten years after, when the PDP opponents wanted to use the shuttered allegation to disqualify Tinubu from running for a second term in Lagos, the Inspector General of Police, Tafa Balogun made an enquiry with the American Consulate on Tinubu’s status.
He noted that the Consulate gave Tinubu a clean bill in a reply by the Legal Attache, Michael H. Bonner.
