Deji Adeyanju, popular rights activist, has said Bola
Tinubu, National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, should be
rotting in jail rather than running for the presidency.
Adeyanju remarked that Tinubu, who has no known source of
income, now has unaccounted billions to his name.
Speaking with Dailypost, the Convener of Concerned Nigerian,
maintained that Tinubu’s decision to run for Presidency is an insult to the
sensibility of Nigerians.
The Abuja-based activist lamented that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has refused to act on a petition calling for Tinubu’s prosecution.
According to Tinubu: “It’s an absurd and insult on the
integrity on the sensibility of Nigerians that a man that lacks integrity and
character and is notorious for being the chief landlord of Lagos State wants to
crave the country into the unfortunate situation Lagos State has found itself
where he is milking the poor masses dry.
“Tinubu, who does not have any known past experience, source
of income, now has unaccounted billions to the extent of moving them to his
house on the eve of the last general elections, which is against the clear
provision of the constitution.
“Quote on this, what he did is a gross violation of the
provision of the prohibition of the money laundering Act, it’s a clear
violation of section one of that Act that forbids all private citizens in
Nigeria to have in their possession not more than five million naira cash.
“EFCC has received our letter, and we have a subsisting
petition before the commission that we had severally insisted that Tinubu
should be prosecuted for money laundering. Somebody who should be in jail is
saying he wants to contest to become the president of Nigeria; what an insult
to the sensibility of all Nigerians. People like him should be rotting in jail
for the damage done to this country.”
Tinubu recently informed President Muhammadu Buhari of his
lifelong aspiration to rule Nigeria.
He, however, noted that he was still consulting about
running for the Presidency.
