The Nigerian main opposition Party, the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) spent about N1.86B on Tinubu’s 60th birthday.
State and Local government areas in ACN control states contributed this amount, apart from Oyo State that refused to send in their own ‘widow’s handout’.
The carnival like birthday party for the ACN chief, lasted for a week.
PDP south west chiefs chuckled at this extravaganza and ACN’s stalwarts frequent criticism of President Jonathan and the ruling party, PDP. They describe it as a case of “Aki calling Pawpaw a dwarf”.
