Femi Fani-Kayode, former minister of aviation, says Bola Tinubu, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), is fit as a fiddle.  

Fani-Kayode is the director, new media of the APC presidential campaign council.

In a statement on Sunday, the former minister said Tinubu is more mentally, physically and spiritually alert than other presidential candidates.

“Tinubu is as fit as a fiddle and has nothing to hide because there is no skeletons in his cupboard,” he said.

“He is more mentally, physically and spiritually alert compared to other presidential candidates irrespective of what is being said about him in the media.

“Tinubu does not visit dark places, he is pure in body, spirit and soul, no matter what is being said about Tinubu, he has never betrayed those that helped him to power, he is loyal to his own to a fault.

“As each day passes, the collective ignorance, pettiness and weaknesses of the opposition is becoming more and more manifest.”

Fani-Kayode said the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is fearful of Tinubu’s popularity and chances at the poll.

He said as a result of this, the PDP has resorted to maligning his health and age.

“The PDP and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar know that Tinubu will win the 2023 presidential election hands down, this is getting clearer as each day passes,” he said.

“This is why they are so jittery, that is why they resort to nothing but falsehood, insults and abuse.

“That is why the only thing they talk about is Tinubu’s health and age.”

He said while the APC council wants an issue-based campaign, the opposition party does not.

He said the campaign council will not be distracted by negative comments and criticisms by the opposition, adding that the APC would remain focused.

“For us, the issue is our beloved country Nigeria and the only person in the race that we can trust with the destiny of 200 million Nigerians is Asiwaju Bola Tinubu,” he said.
