Despite protests from a few Diaspora Nigerians, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress delivered his lecture at Chatham House in the UK on Monday.

Below is an excerpt from the lecture:

“When I was born in March 1952, nobody knew I would join politics, talkless of running for President. My records have been consistent and there was no mutilation. I am a Tinubu proper….those without history and track records dwell in lies against me. One of the presidential candidates have been rumoured not to be a Nigerian, we never dwell on that, we have serious matters to talk about. I’m a graduate of Chicago State University, by the way, I’ve collected my original Certificate from Chicago, I was trained as an accountant by Deloitte, I reached the pinnacle of my career at ExxonMobil. Who among my opponents have these records? That’s why they dwell on cheap propaganda…….”
