Tinubu Was Involved In Drug Trafficking –Hundeyin Insists In Latest Salvo

Investigative journalist, David Hundeyin, has insisted that the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Bola Tinubu, was involved in drug trafficking in the 90s.

Hundeyin made this allegation on Thursday, during an interview on AriseTV, monitored by Ripples Nigeria.

The journalist earlier had published an expose regarding the details of tinubu alleged drug trafficking activities, despite not being indicted by the American government.

In his latest claim during the interview, Hundeyin said that Tinubu’s drug-trafficking past were grounded in facts.

“Tinubu was involved in drug trafficking and this is not an allegation; they are documented facts on record. And because this issue happened a long time ago, people tend to forget and this is a ridiculous position since he aims to be the President of Nigeria.

“Of course, he has to answer these questions about the drug trafficking links since there are evidence; he doesn’t want to answer these questions since he has no defence. He is as guilty as sin,” he said.

Hundeyin had published an expose against Tinubu titled, ‘Bola Ahmed Tinubu: From Drug Lord To Presidential Candidate.’

The United State District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, in November, released fresh documents detailing Tinubu’s encounter with American authorities, over allegations of narcotics trafficking and money laundering.

The US court records showed that the former governor of Lagos State had forfeited up to $460,000 to the United States authorities in a plea bargaining agreement.

The issue had generated mixed reactions in recent days, but the 56-paged document released by the district court headquartered in Chicago did not include crucial new details but was just part of the matter that had been in the media and public domain for more than two decades now.
