Gbajabiamila and the ConPrince: Tinubu’s Presidency and the limits of denial, by Ugoji Egbujo

The article discusses allegations against Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi Matthew, who is accused of using forged documents and fraudulent practices to gain access to government resources, including securing an office at the Federal Secretariat, inserting a fake budget line for a non-existent council into the 2026 federal budget, and hosting foreign ambassadors. These actions allegedly occurred under the administration of President Bola Tinubu. The article suggests that the Tinubu administration is downplaying these accusations, portraying itself as a victim of the prince's supposed magical abilities. Additionally, the article highlights claims by the prince that he was promised a public office in exchange for £600 million, with £400 million already paid, and that the deal fell apart due to demands for a large share of profits. The article questions how someone with a history of impersonation managed to bypass governmental oversight and raises concerns about the integrity of the Tinubu administration.

Bias read (Left): The article frames the Tinubu administration as incompetent and complicit in allowing fraud, suggesting a lack of accountability and transparency.
