Folashade Tinubu-Ojo, daughter of the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), and former Lagos Governor, Bola Tinubu, has confirmed that her father was sick for some time.
Folasade noted that vehicles also broke down and her father was taken care of and now healthy to govern the country.
She said this amid concerns raised about the health of her father, who in January told President Muhammadu Buhari that he would like to succeed him.
At different periods last year, Tinubu travelled abroad for medical treatments, in various reports done by SaharaReporters.
On one of such, he underwent a knee surgery and physiotherapy in London.
According to Daily Trust, commenting on her father’s chances, Tinubu-Ojo, who is the grand patron of Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu Support Group, said the crisis rocking the party and its convention would not deter the party from victory in 2023.
Folashade Tinubu-Ojo said, “Everybody can say whatever they like. Even vehicles break down. He (Tinubu) was down for some time. He was taken care of; now he is healthy. It’s very obvious, we can see it.
“I believe strongly the convention is going to hold on the 26th of March, In sha Allah (God willing).”
