Tinubu arrives Nigeria, prepares for campaign

Presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu, yesterday evening, put paid to partisan speculations regarding his health as he arrived the Abuja Airport from London into the waiting arms of his associates.

Tinubu had left the country on September 24, 2022.

Among those who received him on arrival at the airport were his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima; Director-General of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, Governor Simon Lalong; former APC national chairman, Mr Adams Oshiomhole, and many others.

The development came as it emerged that governors of the party, the Senator Abdullahi Adamu-led National Working Committee, NWC, and the Presidential Campaign Council, PCC, are set to meet again to finalize their plans for the flag off of the campaign in Abuja.

A top party source told Vanguard that at Wednesday’s meeting of the trio, the PCC had been asked to complete everything that had to do with the composition and membership of the council.

Tinubu had been away for days, missing out on several public events, including the recent signing of a peace accord by presidential candidates and their parties.

Culled from Vanguard
