Tinubu who Narrowly Escaped Assassination 30 Years Ago Now the President of Nigeria

By Seyifunmi Odunuga

 30 years ago, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu was in Assylum in the UK where he was  leading other Democrats who also escaped from the bullets of Abacha and found themselves in a completely new environment. TINUBU, who narrowly escaped assassination and had his Ikoyi house bombed by the military junta was trailed to Republic of Benin where he initially ran to before the UK offered him asylum when the military wanted to give him Kudirat treatment! 

UK provided safe haven for our leaders to reorganise themselves and send the military junta out of Aso Rock, retire them all so that only professionals soldiers are left in the military 🪖!!!! 

And today, the man whose Ikoyi house was bombed by the military, who escaped assassination in Nigeria and Cotonou, a man whose entire accounts were frozen by the military but eventually escaped with his life, a man who wasn't unlucky like Rewane, Kudirat, Sulitat, and score of people neutralised by the military junta on the streets like Kudirat, in their bedrooms like Rewane, Suliat etc......BOLA AHMED TINUBU is now the President of the same Nigeria 🇳🇬 GOD is indeed Wonderful!!!!

His visit to the UK today isn't by chance but by destiny. He is the first Southern Leader of Nigeria to be so honoured. It is a journey he started 30 years ago as a refugee which he ended today as a President!

I dedicate this history to Chief MKO ABIOLA, KUDIRAT ABIOLA, ALFRED REWANE, SULIAT ADEDEJI, GANI FAWEHINMI, BEKO KUTI, DAN SULEIMAN, PROF BALA USMAN, FRANK KOKORI among many others......One of you is now the President of Nigeria 🇳🇬 currently being honoured by the King, Queen, Princes and Princesses of England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. 

Congratulations to JUNE 12
