\n
The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP Presidential Candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has challenged the All Progressives Congress, APC standard bearer, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu to fully disclose his background.<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n
Atiku, in a statement by Phrank Shaibu his Special Assistant on Public Communication said such information will clear all doubts regarding the true identity of Tinubu.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
He said: “Where is Tinubu from? Who are his parents? Who was Tinubu\u2019s father? What was his name? What is Tinubu\u2019s full name? Is it Bolatito, Omobolanle, Abolaji, Bolarinwa?”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
According to Atiku, anybody aspiring to lead over 200million should be honest enough to make full disclosure regarding his roots.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The statement read:<\/div>\n
“The wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion, says the Holy Bible.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“This perhaps explains why the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has refused to open himself up for scrutiny but continues to evade debates, non-partisan town hall meetings and live interviews.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Tinubu\u2019s entire life and persona is based on falsehood and thus he cannot address these questions hence his decision to continue to run all over the place. But these controversies did not begin today.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“In 2007 a former head of the civil service of Lagos State, Abdulrafiu Babatunde Tinubu, one of the eldest members of the Tinubu family, published a book titled, \u201cOnijumu Wura: The Tinubu Dynasty of Kakawa, Lagos (The Tree)\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Abdulrafiu included the names of all members of the Tinubu dynasty from the 19th century till date. Conspicuously missing from the book was the name of Bola Tinubu.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“The author claimed anyone whose name was not listed in the book was not an authentic member of the Tinubu family.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Atiku Abubakar\u2019s history has never been in doubt. His father was Garba Abubakar, a Fulani trader and farmer while Atiku\u2019s mother was Aisha Kande. Atiku was named after his paternal grandfather Atiku Abdulqadir who hails from Wurno, Sokoto State and migrated to Kojoli village at Jada, Adamawa State.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“His maternal grandfather was Inuwa Dutse who migrated to Jada, Adamawa State from Dutse, Jigawa State.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Where is Tinubu from? Who are his parents? Who was Tinubu\u2019s father? What was his name? What is Tinubu\u2019s full name? Is it Bolatito, Omobolanle, Abolaji, Bolarinwa?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“While it is not uncommon for leaders to use a short version of their names, most times, for the purpose of stylistic rendition, the full outlay of their names is nonetheless public knowledge.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“In the Second Republic such names as Bisi Onabanjo, Bola Ige, Bisi Akande and many more from the Southwest region are brand names of great political icons.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“But even as it were, everyone knew that the Governor of Ogun State in the Second Republic was known in full as Olabisi Onabanjo, ditto for Ajibola Ige and the rest of such examples.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“However, it is confounding that in the case of the APC presidential candidate, he is simply known as Bola Tinubu. No one knows the prefix or suffix to his \u2018Bola.\u2019<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Tinubu also seems to have moved from infancy directly to university in the United States of America hence his record as the only Presidential candidate in the history of Nigeria not to include his primary and secondary school information on his INEC Form CF001.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Earlier in 1999, while contesting for the governorship of Lagos State, he lied on oath that he attended St. Paul\u2019s School, Aroloya and Government College Ibadan but his credentials were soon challenged by the late legendary lawyer, Chief Gani Fawehinmi (SAN) even as it had been established that Tinubu had no classmates in primary or secondary school.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Eager to avoid another embarrassing scrutiny, he has now decided to be silent about his primary and secondary education. Rather than tell the truth, his Campaign Spokesman, Festus Keyamo, shamelessly stated on Arise Television that Tinubu did not attend primary or secondary school and should thus be commended for beating the odds.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cThey are asking what primary school one must have attended to go to secondary school. We want the younger ones to know that this is a virtue and not a vice. In those days, great men wrote exams from home,\u201d Keyamo said. This is complete balderdash given the fact that Keyamo had in 2000 sued the Lagos State House of Assembly for clearing Tinubu of school certificate forgery.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Since the APC continues to insist that they will not present their presidential candidate for media scrutiny, may we therefore call on the media handlers of this particular \u2018Bola\u2019 Tinubu to avail the country and its people the full outlay of Bola Tinubu\u2019s name.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“The country and its people need to know if the man seeking to become their president is known as Adebola, Ajibola or, perhaps, it\u2019s just simply: Bola(lokan)?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“The nation shall be most grateful if the APC can remove this tiny veil out of the many shades about their presidential candidate that they don\u2019t want the Nigeria people to know about.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“It is often said that you can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time. Nigerians must not allow a stranger, an anonymous man with no record to control the destiny of over 200 million people.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
