Tinubu said, “I have no dime, no kobo investment in the toll gate.”
“I will never, never be part of any carnage. I will never be part of that. Why will they use live bullets?
“Before now, I was being accused and reported to the Presidency that I was behind the protests, that I was a sponsor of the protests.”
The strong man of South West politics had earlier on Tuesday, urged the #EndSars protesters against giving the impression that they wanted to cause anarchy.
