Bola Tinubu, national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has broken his silence on the demise of Jide, his eldest son.
The politician’s son died under controversial circumstances on Wednesday.
Admitting that no father would want to be in his shoes, Tinubu said: “I wish I could bring back my son but I can’t.”
He expressed gratitude to all those who have reached out to him during the trying period
“We must seek a lesson in every loss. Your reaction to my son’s passing has taught me that we can be a people of profound love and humanity when we want to be,” he said.
“People of every tribe, region, faith and every political affiliation have expressed their sympathy and extended to me the embrace of a brother or sister.
“Even those who don’t agree with me politically have shown strong support and care indistinguishable from that of my associates. This says so much about the innate goodness in all of us. For no matter what, we are not foes or enemies. We are all of one human stock, a single nation, one family.”
