Tinubus ally. Tomorrow he'll say it wasn't him that was convicted rather his bank account.

Someone who can be the president of Nigeria after 10 years?

Kindly define what a 'Nigerian international fraudster' is. And why is a Nigerian news house so flippantly associating their own country with crime? People act as individuals, not as members of any community or country. If Premium Times doesn't get and reflect that, who will?

nice car....

Na Woodberry offend, na Hushpuppi picture una put. you can do better.

If Tinubu a well known heroine packager and pusher can become Nigerian president,hushpuppi and woody have a very bright chance to become either president or govornor of their respective state,Nigeria is a crime against humanity!

Tinubu/APC corn and agbado munchers will probably argue at some point that it was his bank account that pled guilty.

Our future president 🙌🏽

Woodberry, the one chatting with the FBI and not aware? The one who some claim put his major hush funds into crypto wallet which he denied to disclose. Good luck to them.

Nigerian Resident Doctors Kick Against 'Slavery', Condemn Bill Stopping Them From Travelling Overseas | Sahara ReportersThe Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors has said any attempt by the Federal Government to enslave Medical Doctors in the country under any guise will be resisted. The association in a communiqué issued at the end of its emergency extended National Officers’ Committee meeting signed by the NARD President, Dr Emeka Orji; its Secretary-General, Dr Kelechi Chikezie; and Publicity and Social Secretary, Dr Umar Musa, said a bill being proposed by the National Assembly as modern day slavery which should be thrown away. Why would such a bill be introduce if the F.G. are doing the needful to encourage, facilitate & improve health care sector in Nigeria. I hope they won't travel out for medical treatment too? This is simple if our selfish, stupid and highly overrated law makers sponsors a bill that hold Nigerian doctors from traveling overseas then they should put up a bill that’ll restrict the law makers from seeking medical attention abroad also…. Our politicians are so so wicked
