All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda has strongly defended President Bola Tinubu’s physical fitness for office, pointing to his demanding recent campaign schedule as clear evidence of his vitality.
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday night, Yilwatda highlighted the president’s rigorous itinerary over the weekend, which included high-profile visits and public engagements across Akwa Ibom and Rivers states.
“Did you watch him (Tinubu) dance in Akwa Ibom? I was there live and I danced with him, he danced to the music of the people,” Yilwatda said.
“Tinubu is fit to go, he was in Akwa Ibom, he had a dinner, town hall meeting with the people that same Friday, he engaged the people late in the night after the dinner and the next morning he was in Rivers. And if someone is not fit, he will do 48 hours of non-stop engagements and trips at the same time? Bring another complaint.”
Addressing criticisms regarding the balance between political campaigning and presidential duties, Yilwatda explained that the party has deliberately structured a staggered timeline to ensure state governance remains uninterrupted.
