2023 Presidency: Tinubu Opens Up on Being Sick

The National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu has put to rest the discrepancy surrounding his health status.

Speculating reports have been that the former Lagos State Governor who is one of the frontline presidential aspirants under the platform of APC, has medical issues he is battling with.

Several video clips had emerged on social media indicating how physically unfit the Asiwaju of Lagos is.

However, speaking at the Nasarawa Government House, Lafia, on Friday while pleading with state delegates to vote for him during the May 30th APC presidential primaries, Tinubu said he is not sick.

Reacting to insinuations that he lacks the physical strength to serve as president of the country, the former governor said he is not applying to become a wrestler.

According to him, “I’m not competing to be a WWE wrestling man. They say he is sick; he is not well. Am I sick? I’m not. When I apply for this job, I didn’t apply to Governor Abdullahi Sule to be a concrete mixer.”
