Remi Tinubu; a politician and pastor

Remi Tinubu, a lawmaker who represents Lagos Central in the Senate, was ordained an assistant pastor of the RCCG in 2018.

Uzor Kalu said:

“Let me tell you, in my house, my wife is the head of the house in reality. Even you men that are here, now that your wives aren’t here, they are the head.
"Like if I wear this cloth, my wife will tell me ‘My dear, this cloth is not good remove it’.
"Your wife will tell you you are supposed to eat Akara and Akamu, whether you argue with her, you must take that Akamu and your wife want you to pay children school fees, whether you argue or not, you must pay."
