Bola Tinubu Returns To Nigeria Amidst Concerns (photo) by saaedlee: 10:45pm On Sep 02, 2016

Several political figures in the All Progressives Congress (APC) told SaharaReporters that there were serious apprehensions about former Governor Ahmed Bola Tinubu of Lagos State who has not been seen in public for several weeks. Some of the politicians wondered whether the former governor had taken ill, noting that there were political challenges in the party’s south-west zone that they expected Mr. Tinubu to be on ground addressing.

In the wake of their concerns, a source close to Mr. Tinubu told SaharaReporters that the former governor left Nigeria two weeks ago and flew to the United Kingdom for personal reasons. The source added that Mr. Tinubu was supposed to have returned a week later, but his whereabouts remain unknown to party apparatchiks.

The APC leader’s aides did not initially return our correspondent’s phone calls and ignored text messages inquiring about his whereabouts and requesting to interview him. However, in a short text to SaharaReporters just before we went to press, Mr. Tinubu dismissed concerns about his health, stating that he was abroad on vacation and to attend to some long neglected personal affairs.

Several APC politicians who spoke to our correspondent said their concerns grew when Mr. Tinubu, a former senator who serves as the national leader of the APC, became noticeably absent during yesterday’s visit to Osun State by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Mr. Tinubu had issued a statement yesterday assuring the people of Ondo State that the APC was prepared to win the forthcoming governorship election in the state, but there were unanswered questions about the politician’s location.

In Ondo State, where APC primaries are expected to hold tomorrow to choose the party’s governorship candidate, Segun Abraham, a contestant who is known to be Mr. Tinubu’s anointed favorite, was described as deeply worried by his main backer’s prolonged absence. A political source in the state said Mr. Abraham’s campaign appear troubled by Mr. Tinubu’s absence. The candidate’s aides impatiently rebuffed efforts to interview him.

Mr. Tinubu’s text message said he was “very well,” adding, “I may be returning today.” According to him, he was spending part of his summer holiday and “taking care of previous neglected personal affairs.”

Before going to press the APC National Leader’s aides said he has arrived Lagos from the UK.

Everybody needs a time out.

The Busiest man in the World, the President of the United States just got back from his vacation last week after resting for almost 2 weeks.

Tinubu is a party leader,not a political office holder,so I am curious why his absence from the public would make the nosy people think of his health first.

Make una no carry una bad Belle kill Tinubu abeg.

Tinubu lost his political bearing since the time the CPC's faction of the APC decided to put him where he rightly belong.The nemesis of what he put Nigeria through must be seriously hunting him now. tongue

including suspending staff indefinitely

oga tell yourself the truth the more you try to cover this useless government incompetence the more it shows like a pregnant woman.

have you ever seen a company that suspends it's workers indefinitely just because of maintenence? the change is affecting the changer directly and i love it.

my problem is that this doesn't affect even 1% of his forking wealth angry

she refused to be an irredeemable zombie she deals with reality not blind support and childish support like you guys.
i bet you you didn't even support or championed cpc/apc course even 1/10 like berem/Beremx did as far as 2007 till date.

no reasonable person who's a primary consumer will support this government and i bet you there are millions of Beremx out there regretting their votes for the useless incompetent, docile and dumb administration, Keneking, FastShipping, 98990 or whatever the number is that moniker grin was one of staunch supporter here but boy this is reality and is staring at even at you. you guys takes your consolation from blaming Gej which is already stale even lair Muhammed the charlatan bastard knows that.

if you're still supporting this useless administration it's either

a. your family is forking rich and you careless about what others feel (selfish)

b. you're not living in this country (careless)

c. you're a bigot and an immature brain (sees reality as igbo vs yoruba supremacy or apc vs pdp stuff)

d. you're a zombie (no comments) grin

e. you're direct or indirectly a benefactor of this useless government (paid supporters man must wack)

a characteristics of a zombie reality is heating hard but too coward in nature to admit it


he/she knows the koko, admits it but you'll see him/her say something like "yes Buhari administration is bad but Gej was never an option" grin

and i ask ooo
Gej was never an option yet things were cheaper rice was 9k foreign ooo local was between 5-6k (confirmed by me)
people were happy
dangote was African richest (the vodoo economy that made dangote such rich and things easy)
dollars was max of 210 and always fall down (today dollars don't even think of falling down)
people were very happy and investors where trooping into Nigeria like crazy
Nigeria was ranked among China in terms of fastest growing economy (CNN also fall for the so called voodoo economy wonderful!!! NOI was a genius scammer cheesy )

so many great things like the return of rice pyramid which Buhari could not hide his admiration for the wonderful achievement in agriculture sector of Gej

we are all happy back then

but someone will say Gej was never an option just to justify his/her stupidity for voting a visionless bastard.
well we prefer that "no option" era not this change era grin
