More documents have revealed how Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was convicted of drug trafficking in the United States of America.
In the matter filed by the United States of America, plaintiff, against Tinubu, the Northern District Court of Illinois listed three accounts belonging to the accused, holding amounts in excess of $1.4 million, and issued a forfeiture order of the above-described sums in the said accounts.
Meanwhile, according to the court documents obtained by News Band, Tinubu’s take home pay, as a staff of Mobile Oil Nigeria Ltd., was $2,400 per month.
It was gathered that shortly after the United States flagged the accounts with the sums, Tinubu contacted the First Heritage Bank seeking to transfer the money from his accounts but was informed that the accounts have been seized by the US Treasury.
The court stated amongst other things that “beginning as early as 188, Adegboyega Mueez Akande, with others, operated an organization which distributed white heroin, a controlled substance under Title 21 of the United States Code.
“…this distribution operation was conducted on a large scale and the proceeds of the operation were substantial.
“…The Defendant funds are therefore forfeited to the United States.”
