The news that Bola Tinubu, the national leader of the All Progressives Congress, had travelled on health grounds has been refuted.
Tinubu is in good health and spirits, according to an assistant to the former governor of Lagos state, Tunde Rahman.
He suggested that Tinubu travel overseas for discussions and more consultations in preparation for his presidential bid in 2023.
Tunde Rahman wrote, “Asiwaju’s trip to the UK (United Kingdom) is not to rest or because of any illness. “While abroad, Asiwaju is maintaining a vigorous schedule of meetings and consultations on a range of important matters.
“Whether at home or abroad, the daily schedule of Asiwaju is vibrant and full. Most people couldn’t sustain his high level of activity. This speaks to his exceptional intellectual energy and his commitment to achievement.” “Asiwaju will return to Nigeria next week once this set of meetings and talks abroad is completed.”
