Attn: Adey_RE:Tinubu is a Damaged Governor:
Adey Oyenuga
Buhari, the ex-Speaker of the house, didn't need a 'Toronto' certificate
to be elected into the National Assembly.
I believe that majority of the people of Lagos State would be willing to
forgive their governor - Gov. Tinubu - for his so-called 'mistakes'. Yes,
let his lawyer take the rap. HOWEVER, last week (or so), Gov. Tinubu was
reported to have showcased his CPA certificate to the press, in order to
silent his detractors. Well.....
Prince Adey.
