Remi Tinubu has praised her husband, Bola Tinubu, as a leader known for his transparency and dedication to improving the lives of Nigerians, often working late into the night.
“To me, Mr. President is quite a transparent book, an open book that people can see. Whatever they see him do is what he does in private,” Mrs. Tinubu said.
The Remi Tinubu comments were featured in a documentary shared by Tinubu on Thursday, titled “Creating the Pathway for National Prosperity in Nigeria.”
According to Mrs. Tinubu, the president spends his nights studying and thinking about ways to enhance the country’s welfare and fulfill his campaign promises.
She elaborated, “What he does more is that he studies late into the night, reviewing things and going through files, trying to think about ways to get things going well for our people to deliver on his promises to Nigerians.”
Mrs Tinubu’s portrayal of her husband as “transparent” contradicts her husband’s public image, dented by corruption, certificate forgery, identity theft, and involvement in cocaine trafficking controversies.
In the 1990s, Mr. Tinubu was implicated in a cocaine trafficking case that resulted in him forfeiting money to the U.S. government.
In 2022, Peoples Gazette published a series of reports detailing how Mr. Tinubu, as Lagos governor from 1999 to 2007, allegedly enriched himself through questionable tax administration practices involving the company Alpha Beta.
The newspaper also reported that Alpha Beta siphoned billions to shell companies.
