The national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is in the United Kingdom for consultations over his 2023 presidential ambitions, his media aide has said.
His spokesman, Tunde Rahman, was reacting to media reports that the former Lagos governor was in the UK for medical treatment.
“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,” he added.
There have been fears that Tinubu is not in good health and that he is not fit to run for the 2023 presidency.
It would be recalled that Tinubu was in the UK for over three months in 2021 when he underwent surgery and therapy for a knee injury.
