Tinubu seriously sick, flown to Paris Hospital, aide reacts

A national leader of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu is currently sick and has been flown to a hospital in Paris, France.

Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode made the claim via a tweet.

He tweeted, “I have been informed that BAT is ill and is in a Paris hospital. It is not a crime to be ill & neither should it be a state secret. All mortals fall ill from time to time. I join others in praying for him& I wish him well. May God grant him a speedy recovery & a safe journey home.

Meanwhile, Tinubu’s media aide, Tunde Rahman, issued a statement, saying that the Asiwaju of Lagos as the APC National Leader is referred to by some of his supporters, is “hearty but resting in London“.

Tinubu’s aide said about the report: “That’s a lie from the pit of hell. Asiwaju is very okay. He is very fine and not sick. He does not have COVID-19. If you must know, we have done COVID-19 test 15 times, each time he felt we had travelled and mingled with many people and could be vulnerable even though he always wore his face mask, but he has been certified negative 15 times.

“Yes he is abroad. Not in France, but in London resting. So you can see the falsity in that information you talked about. Thank you”, Rahman said in response to the report that his principal is “critically sick” and has been flown abroad for treatment.
