NATIONAL LEADER OF APC, BOLA AHMED TINUBU LANDS IN NIGERIA AFTER 3 MONTHS

National Leader of the All Progressives Congress and former governor of Lagos state, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has now arrived in Nigeria in a rather quiet style.

Tinubu landed in the country on Friday, 8 October 2021 to beat his campaign group, SWAGA 2023 to the rally planned for Sunday, 10 October 2023, when they were hoping to receive him with a mother of all rallies that will shake the nation.

Tinubu’s health has been a subject of controversy of late.
Rumours making the rounds says that the former Lagos State Governor had undergone knee surgery at the John Hopkins University Hospital in Maryland, the United States.

The APC chieftain then left the US for the United Kingdom on crutches, a few days after the surgery.

At least over 30 politicians have visited the National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, in London, the United Kingdom in the last three months.

President Muhammadu Buhari was the first person who visited Tinubu on 13 August.

Lagos state Governor, Sanwo-Olu and other party chieftains in Lagos on Thursday launched South-West Agenda 2023, a political movement mobilizing support for Tinubu to contest the 2023 presidential election.

Though Tinubu has yet to declare his intention to contest any office in 2023, there have been reports and veiled indications that he might be interested in the exalted seat.
