This Is What Former Lagos Deputy Governor, Sinatu Ojikutu Has Vowed To Do If Tinubu Becomes President


sinatu ojikutuAlhaja Sinatu Ojikutu, a former deputy governor of Lagos State, has pledged to resign her citizenship if Bola Tinubu is sworn in as president.

Ojikutu, who is the first female deputy governor in Nigeria served from 1992 to 1993 and was the deputy governor to Michael Otedola until the military takeover of 1993.

Speaking to reporters in Lagos on Wednesday, Ojikutu said she had instructed her attorneys to begin preparing a plan for her to renounce her Nigerian citizenship in the event that Tinubu was to be inaugurated as president on May 29, 2023.

According to the Daily Independent, she stated that her life was not safe and that she supported Peter Obi of the Labour Party.

She said: Before the results of the presidential elections were declared, I came out to say that if Bola Tinubu won the election, I would renounce my citizenship in Nigeria and I have my reasons.

“When he won, people called me and said he would not do anything bad. But I am endangered by the current situation. I have been ostracised and humiliated in places where I should be honoured because of his not being at peace with me.


When she “heard Tinubu asking if I was still alive, I had to check,” she claimed.

“I will not hold a Nigerian passport with Bola Tinubu as President. I am praying to God to give me the nation I can go to. I am not going to America or the United Kingdom. I want a simple place where I (can) stay and live for the rest of my life.

“I don’t know where I am going but I have already given it to the lawyers to please see where I can get the citizenship. I am working on it seriously before May 29.”

Ojikutu said all efforts to resolve the differences she had with Tinubu since she was made a Commissioner representing Lagos State at the Federal Character Commission had been unsuccessful.
