Bola Tinubu: I put those saying I’m sick to shame

The All Progressives Congress (APC)'s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has openly blasted those who have said that his health issues prevent him from leading Nigeria.

Tinubu had an interview with Kaduna's Freedom Radio while doing the Lesser Hajj in Saudi Arabia, and Prime 9ja Online listened in. In it, he said that no ill person could do what he had since June 2022, when he was named the APC's presidential candidate.

Following his return to Nigeria from Makkah, Saudi Arabia, where he had performed the smaller hajj (Umrah), Tinubu asserted that the task of becoming president of Nigeria was about the ideas he possessed.

He said, “Ah! I told you where I am now. I just finished performing the 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. I have moved round, spoke at different platforms and stood for hours to address different audiences. Before they said I could not walk, they said I could not stand, they are shamed”.

“Since the campaign started I have marshalled more original ideas than anyone else. I have demonstrated knowledge, experience and great capacity to be on top of issues in the country. And this job is about ideas and issues regarding leadership of our country”.

“I have all it takes to be the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and I am asking people of the country to have confidence and respect for that, look at my background and my previous assignments. I want to serve the country and serve the country very well”.
