2023: Tinubu Allegedly Opens Campaign Headquarters In Abuja

Bola Tinubu has quietly opened a campaign headquarters in a Maitama property that once housed a private school confirming his entry into the 2023 presidential race.

The 2,700 square metres property, former home of Eagle Heights International Schools, sits just north of the Philippines Embassy at 2, Kainji Crescent and just across the street from Body of Benchers, which regulates admission into Nigerian legal education institutions.

The property was secured for two years at N15 million per annum, a good deal in the exquisite neighbourhood that is credited more to Mr. Tinubu’s influence than fortitude, according to campaign officials familiar with its financial commitments.

There were no immediate signs from outside that the property holds Mr. Tinubu’s campaign office, but sources within the campaign told our correspondent that activities have intensified inside for the former Lagos governor’s presidential bid.

A campaign insider told us that the office was deliberately tucked between at the conspicuous intersection of Kainji Crescent and Lake Chad Crescent because they needed a place that would provide just enough space needed to run the primaries exploration.

Depending on how activities expand ahead of primaries and general elections, the campaign may still move to a location in downtown neighbourhoods like Garki, Central Area or Wuse, our sources said.

A spokesman for Mr. Tinubu did not return requests for comments from the Gazette Monday morning.
