Tinubu and Shettima Flies To London For Vacation

According to Punch, the flagbearers of the ruling party left the country on Saturday “to take a break and prepare themselves for campaigns” which is slated to begin on September 28.

When contacted on Sunday, the Director of Media and Publicity for Tinubu-Shettima Presidential Campaign Council, Bayo Onanuga, confirmed that his principal took a break.

Onanuga said, “He only took a week break for vacation,” adding that Tinubu’s campaign might begin on October 8.

“Although the campaign will flag off on October 8, we will kick off the stipulated September 28 date with a prayer in all the APC branches nationwide.

“After committing the day to God, we will embark on road work in Abuja. However, I am sure the policy document will be ready before October 2,” he said.

KanyiDaily recalls that Tinubu and Shettima had recently met with the leadership of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), promising to intervene in the lingering ASUU strike.
