2023 Presidency: Asiwaju Tinubu Breaks Silence On His Health Status

The National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and Former Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu says his ambition to succeed the President Mohammadu Buhari in 2023, was seeking a job that requires brain and focus and not one that requires strength.

Tinubu stated on Friday at the palace of Ataoja of Osogbo, Oba Jimoh Oyetunji when he visited the monarch, as he continues to visit royal fathers in Osun State to seek their blessings for his presidential ambition.

Speaking on insinuations that he was unhealthy thus ineligible to contest for the office president, Tinubu said the work of president he has applied for was not bricklaying, race running, or grave digging, but the one that requires the use of brain and intelligence.

He said: “I have the brain and the capacity. If you hear them saying, he is sick, I didn’t apply for the job of race running. I didn’t apply for the job of bricklaying. I went to school to study Accountancy and Management.

“I didn’t apply for a job of a gravedigger. I have applied for a job of brain and intelligence, focus thinking. The job I want to do for Nigeria is for Nigeria to be greater and be proud of itself, our children, and we leave a legacy of success, unlimited success for our great, great children.”

The presidential hopeful said that he aimed to jserve Nigeria to the best of his ability, adding that he possessed the quality that the country was looking for to make it a very great, prosperous, united country.

He noted that even with the availability of human and material resources, Nigeria must build a character of resilience and determination, while Nigerians must see themselves as one entity.

“I don’t care whether you are Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba, Ida, Ijaw or whoever you are, God has blessed us. He blessed us with human and materials. The only thing that He is ready to streamline for us and we are ready to streamline it, is character.

“We must build that character of strong determination, character of selflessness, character of resiliency, character of perseverance in which we must see ourselves as one entity that will build prosperity for all Nigerians. This is my promise,” Tinubu said.

In his remarks, Oba Oyetunji assured Tinubu of support and commended Osun State Vovernor, Adegboyega Oyetola, over the rehabilitation of roads in his domain.

He also warned those spreading insinuations about Tinubu’s health status and prayed for a successful presidential race for the APC chieftain. CONTINUE READING…
