Ibekimi Oriamaja Reports
Paul Ibe, an aide to Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential candidate trafficking and money laundering in the United States.
According to reports, US court documents surfaced online on Tuesday, revealing that the former Governor of Lagos State was convicted of heroin trafficking and that he forfeited millions of dollars to the US government to avoid jail time.
Tinubu was indicted for heroin trafficking in the state of Illinois through a proxy organization owned by Adegboyega Mueez Akande, according to a court document docketed on July 26, 1993, and certified by Thomas O. Burton, the clerk of the court, and subsequently forfeited the proceeds of the crime to the US government.
The funds, which were held in trust for Tinubu by First Heritage Bank and Citibank, were also reportedly forfeited to the US government for being the proceeds of drug-related offenses.
In response to the news, Ibe said in a series of tweets on Tuesday evening via his Twitter handle that he was not surprised.
On his Facebook page, the PDP candidate’s media aide also shared court documents to back up his claim.
“It is no longer news that on October 4, 1993, Bola Ahmed Tinubu forfeited $460,000 to the United States Government for his involvement in narcotics trafficking and illegal financial transactions.” “This 59-page attested court judgment confirms this,” one of the tweets said.
