Linking Tinubu To Lekki Shooting Is Political - MC Oluomo  The chairman of Lagos State Parks and Garages management committee, Musiliu Akinsanya popularly known as MC Oluomo, has said that connecting the killing of EndSARS protesters to the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, is faulty, given he’s not capable of giving such orders. MC Oluomo made this assertion on Sunday during a rally, he organised in Lagos, to show support for Tinubu and Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu. Tinubu is not the Chief of Army Staff who can order the shooting of EndSARS protesters and he also questioned the whereabouts of the bodies, where they are buried and why the families of the deceased were not coming out to inquire about their relatives. He said, "Where are the bodies and where are they buried? Do they have relatives in Nigeria? Has Nigeria bribed the mothers of the deceased protesters?

I Never Called Tinubu a Super Politician – Obasanjo Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has denied singing the praise of former Lagos governor Bola Tinubu. Obasanjo declared that from his experience, only military-trained personnel were good managers of people. The rebuttal by the ex-Head of State was issued on Sunday by spokesperson, Kehinde Akinyemi. Obasanjo stated that he could not have made any remark at the expense of his noble military profession. A viral WhatsApp message by a group, “National Patriots”, claimed that the retired General described Tinubu as a super politician. “If you are looking for a thoroughbred politician of masters class, visit Lagos Bourdillon,” he was quoted saying. Obasanjo stressed that only individuals trained by the armed forces had the capability to properly manage men and materials. “I cannot disparage my noble profession for politics that has no formal training. This is false and fake,” he said.
