The spokesperson for Tinubu-Shettima Presidential Campaign Council, Festus Keyamo, SAN, has dismissed the document alleging that Bola Ahmed Tinubu was indicted in a drug trafficking and money laundering case in the United States of America.
He called the reports ‘a sign of frustration by the opposition’.
Keyamo reacted to the documents being circulated online via his verified Twitter account on Wednesday.
He said those making the claims were chasing a lost battle.
“Sign of frustration: They are seeking to wake a horse long dead and buried and for which a media house publicly apologised in 2016 when they tried to use the story”, he said.
An old judgment document resurfaced in the media on Tuesday, alleging that the United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois, indicted Tinubu of drug trafficking and money laundering.
In July this year, David Hundeyin in an article titled, “Bola Ahmed Tinubu: From Drug Lord To Presidential Candidate”, made a similar allegation. Also, in the twilight of the 2015 elections, the same allegation surfaced in the media.
