Recall that a viral video capturing the former Governor of Lagos State lecturing his campaign team on how to acquire power at all costs had emerged online.
The APC flagbearer, who had appeared at the Chatham House in London, on Monday, spoke on issues concerning the 2023 election, economy, security, and foreign policy.
iBrandtv gathered that after the event, Tinubu and his team took out time to unwind from their stress at a private dinner where he lectured them on political power.
According to the APC flagbearer, political power is not served in a restaurant or ala carte and a person must be determined to get it at all costs.
He noted that if taking over political power will involve fighting for it, an individual should snatch it, grab it and run with it.

With Tinubu’s recent statement to his disciple that Power should be grabbed at all cost, you people can now see why he has been totally against BVAS.
He must be resisted .

LEAKED: "Political power is not going to be served in a restaurant, … at ALL COST, FIGHT for it, GRAB it, SNATCH it & RUN with it." – Tinubu.
His spokepersons will say, he's not referring to ballot boxes, but just charging his team in parables.@inecnigeria take note. pic.twitter.com/H5RkInMDff
