The last and current president is the oldest, you can see his performance now compared to when he was a military president and that of his predecessors.

Any person above 65years shouldn't have any business ruling Nigeria as a president. They should go to old people's home and rest.

And Tinubu is still 69 up until now.
Orji Uzor Kalu became Governor at 39 and that makes him 62 now. So Tinubu is saying that he was 46 in 1999?

Been looking around, checking and rechecking all the spellings of the words in what I posted to see any word that remotely looks like Tinubu there. I'm yet to find any.

Pa Amoda Sangodele or Tinubu as he likes to be called is nothing less than 83yrs but claiming 69!
