2023: Claims of my ill-health jejune, stale – Tinubu

The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Ahmad Tinubu, has berated those saying he should not be aspiring to lead the country due to his purported health challenges.

 

 

Tinubu said those using his widely publicised health challenges to oppose his ambition are only clutching at straws, describing their assertions as stale news.

 

 

Tinubu spoke in an exclusive interview with Kano’s premier independent radio, Freedom Radio, while on lesser Hajj in Saudi Arabia.

 

 

To underscore how healthy and physically sound he’s, Tinubu said he had ‘just’ finished observing seven rounds between Safa and Marwa, which an ill person could not.

 

 

Tinubu’s critics have consistently argued that he is not fit to govern Nigeria on account of alleged lack of mental and physical soundness.

 

 

But he said, “Ah! I told you where I am now. I just finished performing the Umrah. I did the seven rounds of tawaf, I did the seven trips between Safa and Marwa by myself. Can a sick person do that? That is stale news, my brother. People who are making those insinuations have nothing else to say but lies and rubbish.

 

 

“Yes, I am here in Saudi Arabia. It is a personal trip. It is a trip for spiritual rebirth. I like coming to perform the Umrah every now and then. It is an opportunity to connect with Almighty Allah, Lam ya lid wa lam yulad. We need his guidance. Nigeria is in need of prayers, and that is why we are here praying for our country, self and society,” Tinubu said. CONTINUE READING………………………
