Tinubu bought his way into Presidential Villa, became president without studying - Hakeem Baba-Ahmed

Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, the National Chairman of the People's Redemption Party (PRP), has accused President Bola Tinubu of purchasing his entry into the Presidential Villa in 2023. Baba-Ahmed alleged that Tinubu funded his presidential campaign personally, contending that the Nigerian populace did not contribute to his election expenses.

Speaking on Channels Television's Politics Today program on Tuesday, Baba-Ahmed stated that Tinubu assumed office without conducting a thorough study of the nation and comprehending the root causes of its challenges. He remarked, "He should have grasped how this country arrived at its current state. I can comprehend that he was inaugurated on May 29 and lacked the time to study."

Baba-Ahmed asserted that Tinubu single-handedly bought his way into power, potentially making him the only president who campaigned for and financed his own campaign to become president. "He might be the sole president whose constituents did not donate billions, given that he possessed his own funds," he added. "He literally bought his own way into the Presidential Villa and funded his campaign."
