The presidency on Sunday debunked a report by The International Centre for Investigative Reporting, ICIR, purporting that President Bola Tinubu is currently sick and in critical condition.
The ICIR had, in a recent publication, alleged that
preparations were underway by President Tinubu’s medical team to fly him abroad
for urgent medical attention.
Quoting Aso Rock sources, the report alleged that Tinubu had
been bedridden for several days, resulting in his absence from key state
functions.
According to the medium, all President Tinubu’s scheduled
activities, including the Federal Executive Council Meeting, FEC, had been
cancelled since the beginning of the week.
However, Tinubu’s media aide, Bayo Onanuga, who spoke with
Daily Trust on Sunday night, dismissed the rumour of the president’s illness.
On why the president did not attend any public function
since last week, Onanuga replied that the president could choose to work from
home.
“There is nothing wrong with the president, he is okay. He
can choose to work from home. He can choose to work from anywhere.
“I tell you nothing is wrong with the president,” the
presidential spokesman told Daily Trust.
