Marwa handed Tinubu about ₦2bn in 1999.
Tinubu handed Fashola about ₦27bn in 2007.
Lagos also realised more than ₦19bn from its investment in Celtel.
Yet you hardly hear Tinubu jumping around, shouting about how much money he left for Lagos.
I know some people will doubt this because, for some of you, this may be the first time you’re hearing or seeing it.
But don’t take my word for it.
Fact-check it yourself before you comment.
The same Tinubu met Nigeria with net foreign exchange reserves of about $3.99bn at the end of 2023. By July 2026, the CBN Governor reported net reserves of about $40bn.
Again, don’t take my word for it. Go and verify.
Now, let me make something very clear.
If you want to hate or dislike Tinubu, there are valid issues you can point to. The same applies to every other presidential candidate.
Those who support Atiku can give reasons they believe justify their support. Those who support Obi can do the same. Those who support any other candidate can also give their reasons.
And those who don’t support them can equally have reasons for their position.
For me, Tinubu is my candidate.
And honestly, my love for Tinubu goes beyond him being a politician or even being the President of my country.
I love too many things about him.
I love his political journey.
I love his ambition.
I love his ability to think long-term.
I love the vision I believe he has for Nigeria.
I love the fact that he is willing to make difficult decisions even when those decisions are unpopular.
That doesn’t mean I believe Tinubu is perfect.
It doesn’t mean I will defend everything he does.
And it certainly doesn’t mean everybody has to love him because I do.
But I have my reasons for loving and supporting him, just as others have their reasons for supporting the people they support.
At the end of the day, it takes an optimistic person to look beyond the weaknesses of others and still recognise their strengths.
Tinubu is my candidate. I love him, and I make no apology for that.
Keep your wins a secret, or downgrade them. Most people are extremely envious. They do not see the extent of your efforts only the rewards of it. They begin to think you have it easy, or you were lucky. They slowly begin to poison your head by letting their insecurity become the architect of your ambition; passing subtle remarks to break your psyche, branding your self-belief as arrogance, and asking you to be humble.
You can't get what you want if you only rely on comfortable tools.
Everyone in this life must pay the appropriate price for whatever they want.
THAT'S WHY ONE MUST THROW SOMETHING AWAY
