The Chairman of Adamakin Investments and Works Limited, Akindele Adamakin, has called on the Federal Government to bestow a posthumous national honour on the late business tycoon, Madam Efunroye Tinubu. Adamakin made this call on the occasion of the 138th remembrance of Madam Tinubu and the company’s End-of-Year celebration. Adamakin, who is also the sole administrator of the late Madam Efunroye Tinubu’s estate, used the event to also call for justice regarding the expansive estate of the late Tinubu. “The real Tinubu that our President bears is Madam Efunroye Tinubu. He recalled the 1853 banishment of Madam Tinubu by the colonial administration to ‘Ibobi’ (now Igbobi), then a dense forest, and highlighted historical landmarks such as Tinubu Village and Tinubu Close as proof of her acquisitions.
