I’ve repaid Tinubu his £500, I didn’t promised him support – Momodu tells APC

Former presidential candidate, Dele Momodu said he has repaid presidente Bola Tinubu in thousand folds, the £500 given to him during his exile days.

Momodu was reacting to his old interview circulating on social media , where he had allegedly vowed to always support Tinubu.

Taking to his X page on Tuesday, the chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party said, “The APC goons will never get tired of circulating their own version of the interview I granted @chudeity a few years ago.

“They are so obsessed with the part I said Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu gave me 500 pounds in London during our exile years, as if that means I must become a perpetual slave because of that well appreciated support.

“Truth is, I repaid that favour a thousand fold, in ways I’m not willing to divulge, but the commonest being free and regular publicity on Ovation platforms running into thousands of dollars. It is called ‘adding value…

Nowhere did I say I will give unconditional support to Tinubu,” he added while sharing the full video of the interview.
