Tingo: now Dozy blames the others in Nigerian video interview
The blame game is afoot at the Tingo (TIO) fraud, first exposed by myself at Sharestock in September 2022. I discussed on Sunday how the Mail on Sunday hatchet job on Dozy Mmobousi had all the hallmarks of Chris Cleverly throwing him under the bus, blaming him for everything. I now see that Chris also managed to get the Sunday Times to run a piece exonerating him. How bent is the deadwood press that it does not check his historic record of fraud and just takes him at his word? Meanwhile Dozy has recorded the interview below in Nigeria and he has a different view.- By Tom Winnifrith |
