 Tinubu in UK for meetings — he is not sick, says aide;

Tunde Rahman, spokesperson to Bola Tinubu, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), says the former Lagos governor is in the United Kingdom for “consultations”.

There were, however, unconfirmed reports that the former Lagos governor travelled to the UK over ill health.

Speaking on the development in a statement, Rahman said the presidential aspirant is in “excellent spirits” and speculations about his visit to the UK are “unfounded and very inaccurate”

He said Tinubu travelled to the UK mainly for meetings and consultations, adding that he will return to Nigeria next week.

“Asiwaju Tinubu is in fine health and excellent spirits. The speculations in a national newspaper and on social media are just what they are: unfounded and untrue speculations,” he said.

“Asiwaju’s trip to the UK is not to rest or because of any illness. While abroad, Asiwaju is maintaining a vigorous schedule of meetings and consultations on a range of important matters.

Whether at home or abroad, the daily schedule of Asiwaju is vibrant and full. Most people couldn’t sustain his high level of activity. 

“Asiwaju will return to Nigeria next week once this set of meetings and talks abroad are completed.”
