Abati and Rufai Clash Over Whether Tinubu’s Forfeiture Controversy Was Settled in 2023
Arise News anchors Reuben Abati and Rufai Oseni have disagreed over whether the controversy surrounding President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s forfeiture case in the United States was already settled by 2023. The exchange happened on The Morning Show as they discussed renewed references to the long-running issue, which dates back to a 1990s forfeiture order involving about $460,000 linked to accounts associated with Tinubu and others. While Abati suggested the matter had been dealt with by the relevant legal and political processes before Tinubu assumed office, Rufai argued that the controversy could not simply be treated as closed because Tinubu won the 2023 election and later court challenges were dismissed.
