But let me say this that Senator Oluremi Tinubu that we know, who incidentally was the First Lady of Lagos state between 1999 to 2007. Some of us are like sons or brothers to her husband Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and in Yoruba land if you are a son to a woman’s husband you supposed to be her son, she respect us and always address us as Sirs. So she is a woman that is cautious but she does not take nonsense, she does not take shit.”

When asked to justify their protest and the allegation that a some of N75  million was paid to stage the protest, the lawmaker said “I am the Deputy Speaker, Hon. Yinka is here, Hon. Desmond Elliot, we are buoyant enough to sponsor ourselves and we all represent Lagos Central Senatorial District where Oluremi Tinubu is representing, is a course that we too we are convince that we must fight and thirdly, yesterday we went on recess we are not resuming on till August 29th.
