Fani-Kayode speaks on Tinubu’s alleged drug trafficking in US
A former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has rubbished allegations that the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, was indicted and convicted of drug trafficking in the United States.
Fani-Kayode claimed people accusing Tinubu of being convicted of drug trafficking 30 years ago in the US are ignorant.
An old judgment document resurfaced on some media outlets on Tuesday. It alleged that the United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois, indicted Tinubu of drug trafficking and money laundering.
Reacting, Fani-Kayode said the US Ambassador to Nigeria would not have visited Tinubu if he was wanted in America.
In a series of tweets, he said Tinubu won’t have avoided extradition if he was convicted of drug trafficking.
The former Aviation minister maintained that Tinubu would become the next president of Nigeria.
