The Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, said on Wednesday the funds linked to the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu in the United States were not proceeds of drug deals.
Tinubu had come under severe criticism from some Nigerians since he won the APC presidential ticket in June, with some branding him as Nigeria’s version of Pablo Escobar, the Colombian drug lord, who was killed in December 1993.
A certified true copy of a settlement order issued in 1993 by a court in the US on forfeiture of funds in bank accounts linked to one “Bola Tinubu” surfaced on social media on Tuesday.
