Reactions have trailed a comment made by Senator Oluremi Tinubu, the wife of the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Earlier today during a town hall meeting with People Living With Disabilities in Abuja, Senator Oluremi disclosed that she begged the wife of her husband’s running mate, Hajia Nana Shettima, for two million Naira on Wednesday. According to reports, the Senator made the revelation to counter the mindset people have about her and her husband that they are wealthy and popular because of money.
In her words: “When they say he has the money of the world, I just wonder. Mrs Shettima knows that I begged her just to give me N2m yesterday”. She added, “Asiwaju’s secret is not about money, contrary to what people think, he is a very compassionate man and very generous. There is nothing he can’t give.”
