Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has returned to Nigeria after observing a 10-day rest in the United Kingdom.
He was received by a delegation led by his running mate Senator Kashim Shettima, former APC chair Adams Oshiomhole and others.
He alighted from the plane that conveyed him to a shout of ‘’Jagaban’’ and ‘’Asiwaju’’ in a video shared by the spokesman of his Presidential Campaign Council, Festus Keyamo.
In a tweet on Thursday, presidential aide, Bashir Ahmad, said Tinubu had returned to Abuja.
He said, “Our presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has returned to Abuja from London.”
It was reported that Tinubu explained he was strong and healthy while dismissing the rumour that he was dead.
He also dismissed claims that he had withdrawn from the presidential race.
In a tweet accompanied by a video showing him working out on a fitness bike, he wrote, “Many have said I have died; others claim I have withdrawn from the presidential campaign. Well… Nope.
“This is the reality: I am strong, I am healthy and I am ready to serve Nigerians from Day One.”
