Breaking: Tinubu: Keyamo speaks on controversy surrounding health of APC’s Flagbearer

As the 2023 election approaches, the spokesperson for the Bola Tinubu/Kashim Shettima Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), Festus Keyamo (SAN), has said there is no basis at all for the conversation on the health condition of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

THE PUBLISHER NIGERIA reports that there have been concerns among Nigerians about Tinubu’s health condition with many arguing that he regularly seeks medical treatment abroad, is not coherent with his speeches, and sometimes has shaky hands which some claim is a symptom of Parkinson’s disease.

Keyamo, also the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, however, said his principal is healthy enough to run Nigeria.

“On the health condition of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, there is no basis for it at all,” Keyamo told Punch in an interview published on Saturday.

“Asiwaju has been more active than everybody on the campaign. We want to also ask; what is the basis for this suspicion? Has Asiwaju at any time collapsed in public? Did he at any time show any sign of ill-health?

“The only time as far as I can remember is when he went for a knee cap operation, which is just to strengthen him the more and after then he has been bouncing all over the place. You can see him climbing chairs going up and down.

“So, the issue of health is not a factor against him. If it is against him, which means it will also be against Atiku Abubakar, who also went for treatment recently in Dubai,” he said.
