“Stop lying, Tinubu is sick” – PDP wants APC to confess leader’s health status

by Kolapo Olapoju

The Lagos State chapter of Peoples Democratic Party says it is aware of the ill-health of the national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, saying he had travelled out of the country for treatment.

The PDP has urged Lagos state government to carry out its responsibly of letting Lagosians know the health status of the former governor of the state.

The party released a statement on Thursday, 18 September through its Publicity Secretary, Taofik Gani, saying it has heard through the grapevine that Tinubu was in a hospital outside Nigeria.

The party said information about Tinubu’s health would help Lagos residents extend all necessary support to the former governor.

He said, “We wish the former governor, Bola Tinubu, quick recovery as we are made to know from the grapevine that he is ill and in a hospital outside the country. We also feel that the family and the state government should have the obligation to let Lagosians know the actual state of his health.”

“It will not be a bad thing if the former governor appears on television or speaks on phone for broadcast. Indeed Lagosians are humanitarian and would readily support him in prayers. Such honest disclosure will also dispel rumours of his death or paralysis that is being spread around.”

Meanwhile Tinubu’s media aide, Sunday Dare wrote on his Facebook page last week, denying the fact that the national leader of the APC was ill. He said, “I find the idle charter on some online sites about the alleged ill health of Tinubu as amusing. That some idle minds have continued to perpetuate this absolute falsehood to the point of the ridiculous is disgusting.”

“They deserve our prayers for wishing what is not on someone else. For the record, Tinubu is in great shape and his associates who see him and speak with him know this. He is in London helping the APC spread the word about its mission of change. He returns to the country soon and those that wish him dead will be put to shame.”
