A presidential aspirant in the 2023 general elections, Bola Tinubu, has dismissed talks of him being sick, or not healthy enough to lead Nigeria.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Tinubu, 69, who spoke on Friday in Osun state at the palace of Ataoja of Osogbo, Oba Jimoh Oyetunji, said he is eyeing the top Aso Rock position because it is ‘a thinking job’, and not because he is going to be laying bricks there.
“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 National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) said.
In his remarks, Oba Oyetunji, assured Tinubu of support and commended the Osun state governor, 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 ambition.
ABSOLUTELY! The most brilliant response to people out of tune with substance. Dead brains will always engage in mundane issues.
ONCE AGAIN, THE ASIWAJU MANIFESTED HIS MENTAL CAPACITY FOR THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT.
Most competent, most ready. He should continue to focus on the issues. Leave petty nonsense to the passive dull minds.
