I was slapped by a Naval Officer for over charging him – Bola Tinubu

Former Lagos State governor, Bola Tinubu has revealed one experience he will never forget in his life.

The APC chieftain spoke during this year’s edition of the colloquium held every year in celebration of his birthday.

Senator Bola Tinubu narrated the story of how a Naval officer who had just returned to Nigeria gave him a resounding slap for over charging him.

Bola Tinubu said he was a taxi driver at the time of the incident. He further revealed that he will never forget that incident in his life.

He said:

One experience I will not forget was when I over-charged a naval officer, who was returning to the country. It was not intentional. Apparently, I didn’t know the direction; there was no GPRS in those days to locate directions. So, he gave me the direction to his house in a Virginia suburb.

I gave him the price and the man responded with a slap to my face. He said I should know the correct fare to charge to the location he mentioned. He slapped me and gave me the money.
