Tinubu’s daughter denies demanding APC cards, money



Daughter of former Lagos State Governor and the state’s market leader, Folashade Tinubu-Ojo, has said she never demanded the All Progressives Congress membership card from traders as a prerequisite to reopening the Abibatu Mogaji Model Market in Lagos.
A statement by her media consultant, Gboyega Akosile, on Thursday added that no money was demanded from the traders before the market was reopened on Monday.
PUNCH Metro had reported how Tinubu-Ojo led a team of policemen to the market, popularly called Iponri Market 10 days earlier to lock it up.
Our correspondent had quoted market sources on Wednesday alleging that Tinubu-Ojo demanded APC cards and money from traders before the market was reopened.
Akosile, however, said the allegations were false.
