The Lawmaker representing Lagos Central Senatorial District, Senator Oluremi Tinubu has revealed that her re-election into the Senate did not get the backing of her husband, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
She made this revelation on Tuesday September 29th during the "Women in Government’ conference
organised by the South-West Region of the Department For International Development, DFID in collaboration with the Office of the Deputy Governor
of Lagos State.
"Tinubu likes his wife to be at home and what is more confusing to me is that most Muslim men do not want their wives to work, but I am a hard worker.
The former Lagos State First Lady
noted that it was her district leaders who got the form for her and talked her husband into allowing her to run for the position.
“People have been saying that I got to this position because I am Asiwaju’s wife. What they did not realise is that in the past election, my husband asked me not to go for a second term. It was the leaders in my district that got me the form and talked to him that
they wanted me to go back. You can go to my district, the elites
might not know me but the grassroots are the ones supporting and voting massively for me. I think that is enough for me and that is how you can get elected, you have to really identify with your people; if really know your people, they will stand up for you,’’ she stated.
Tinubu noted that she worked hard in order to win the support of her constituency.
"When I got the bill to run for
primaries, I told my husband that I
needed money and he said no money. I fought with the people in my constituency because they said I have to give them more money and I said no, what about the ones I have been giving to you before? If you are not going to vote, so be it. They said that they were just voting for me because of Asiwaju and I responded that Asiwaju is not even supporting me, then, you can go and
vote for him."
She is however appreciative of their massive support.
"But I’m grateful they voted for me. I have realised that when you are elected, you have to go back and work with your constituency because that is where your support and vote rests,’’
she stated

True talk for I sense elements of truth in her words. Its takes d grassroots to bring her to where she is and hope no election malpractice's was involved. I wish her all d best.
We are finished in this country! That we've gotten to lowest of corruption lows that she can openly discuss 'all the money' she has exchanged in the past for votes. What a shame!

What is she saying... Brainless point. Ur husband got the position for you, stop saying nonsense
So how does she think this comments will portray her marriage? U went into something without ur husband"s consent? Is this not her 3rd time in the senate?
So your husband told you not to run and you did. So what example are show Nigerian woman who look up to as a role model? where did you get the money to roll out such an expensive campaign? We Nigerians are not stupid o.
Ikemefuna u haf kill me ooo buahahahaha ayam in love with ur comment lmao,lol
Life is vary funny, Remi Tinibu if you the wife of the renowned Bola Ahmed Tinibu can go against the wish of your husband and fought for your re-election to the senate then I just simply can't imagine how you will justify your stand against senator Bukola Saraki's decision to go against the wish of this same husband of yours in vying for the post of the senate president. wonders shall never end! how can a woman justify her denying her husband from performing his matrimonial right and then stand up to fight another man for refusing to perform gay act with her husband. Linda take note.............we are Africans not gays. Say no to rapists, Saraki's voice is a lonely voice of a victim of rape, rape is not a gender based crime.
Are you really this daft or are you always trying to crack dry jokes here. Go back to school and think sensibly.
Fallacy

Lol...they don't look like 'couples' because they are a couple...you should note that. #NoHardfeelingsTho
This woman is starting to resemble Tinumbu , is very bad for young girls to be sleeping with old men this is the result.
Please sit down already! You are where you are today by virtue of who your husband is. You went straight from the kitchen to the Senate. You have no other legitimate qualities to be a Senator besides being Asiwaju's wife. One would expect that since you've been there you would at least usrped the opportunity you were given to make an impact, but you are intellectually and tactically incapable.
You were extremely docile and invisible in the senate until Saraki's emergence as President. Now you are trying to act like you are active and impactful because you and your husband have pulled the wool over your naive 'subjects' eyes and you're gunning for Senate Presidency through the back door. One day God will catch up with all of you and Lagos will eventually win. For now continue to loot the commonwealth dry and lord yourself over everyone in Lagos. God is watching you and he is coming soon!!!
Wetin she for talk?
You are the only person that saw what i saw.. Quite sad.
U re brutally lie, God punish u and ur husband for such comment.
