Tinubu Is Hale And Hearty – Sanwo-Olu

Tinubu’s health has been a subject of controversy, but Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, who had also visited the APC chieftain recently in London, stated that he’s “hale and hearty”.

“Yes, indeed, I am the one you saw in the picture that I took when I visited our leader in London just to dispel all the rumours that were flying around that he was sick and hospitalised.

“You saw him (Tinubu). He is well, he is healthy and we conversed. We talked about what is happening in our party, what is happening in the nation and just to say to him that all is well.

“I went to see things for myself. It is just to put the mind and heart of people to rest that there is nothing for us to worry about,” Sanwo-Olu had said.

KanyiDaily recalls that Tinubu, who has been rumored to nurse presidential ambition in 2023, had celebrated his 69th birthday earlier in March 2021.
