Tinubu’s Public Blunders Are Minor Issues, Don’t Amplify Them – APC Campaign by Joevics(op): 1:22pm On Dec 03, 2022

In a trending video, the former Lagos governor was not able to correct himself as he proceeded to mention “APC” instead of PVC.

The All Progressives Congress presidential campaign council has said that the gaffes and blunders by its candidate, Bola Tinubu, are minor issues and should not be amplified.

The APC council noted that it showed “the lack of seriousness” for some Nigerians to pick on the blunders and make them topical issues.

The APC campaign council Director of Media and Publicity, Bayo Onanuga, stated this in an interview with PUNCH, while noting that opposition candidates made same errors.

SaharaReporters had last week reported that Tinubu is notorious for incoherent speeches, and committed a series of blunders.

While speaking during the APC presidential campaign rally in Lagos State, Tinubu had asked his followers to go and get their “APV” instead of the PVC, the short form of the Permanent Voters Card.

In a trending video, the former Lagos governor was not able to correct himself as he proceeded to mention “APC” instead of PVC.

“Do you love me? Do you love me? Go and take your APV…APC and you must vote,” Tinubu said.

Reacting, Onanuga said, “What people call a gaffe here is incorrect. What’s the big deal in having someone who wanted to call APC or PDP but ended up calling something else?

These are minor slips and Tinubu even corrected himself on each occasion. Even younger politicians like the PDP campaign spokesperson, Daniel Bwala, did that much. There was a video of him where he was talking about the APC when he wanted to say the PDP. Dino Melaye also did the same when he urged the people of Borno to vote for the APC.

And he didn’t even say it once. He repeated it several times.

“I have a problem when people pick a minor issue and amplify it as if it is bigger than it is. It only shows the lack of seriousness of such people. I am not left in these slips. I commit them almost every day. The man spoke about other things as well. He talked about how the PDP looted the treasury and had nothing to show after 16 years of governance. But they are more concerned about his slips. It shows Nigerians that these people are more interested in chasing shadows than substance.”

The APC Presidential Candidate has suffered a number of gaffes while addressing his supporters in most of his presidential rallies recently.

Tinubu while trying to justify his shunning of town hall and debates organised by media organisations in Owerri struggled to mutter an incoherent word, “Balabloo-blu-bulava”.

He had muttered, “a town hall, different from “balabloo-blu-bulava”, to the consternation of his listeners.

Earlier this month, while speaking at the flag-off of his campaign in Plateau state, he also concluded his speech, “God bless PD…APC.”

In October, while speaking at the 7th Kaduna Economic and Investment Summit (KADInvest), Tinubu said Nasir El-Rufai, governor of Kaduna, turned a “rotten situation to a bad one.”

“I am openly begging Governor El-Rufai not to run away from additional degrees like PhD or others. There are educated derelicts,” the former governor of Lagos had said.

“We are not going to let you run away. Your vision, creativity and resilience in turning a rotten situation to a bad one are necessary at this critical time and that is why we are here.”

Thank God APC called it blunders. We are not ready for blunders in 2023 so APC ain't getting our votes. But his ain't just blunders but signs of troubled health which APC is trying to cover up so as to hoodwink NIGERIANS into voting for him. But God has already exposed them.

Parkinson disease and Alzheimer disease combined equals dementia.

Thîefnubu's health condition is quite critical with too many gaffes during public discourse.

It's a pity that APC will force tinubu on the masses who quite frankly are very foolish ... Blinded by Stockholm syndrome.

I will confess my reason for not supporting peter Obi was the fear of the Igbos and how they might highjack the presidency for thier agitation for Biafra ... But out of ALL these candidates, I would say peter obi is the most level headed and futuristic of them.

If he becomes president, for one I would be sure politics will change forever ... And all these old thieves and thier generations will watch thier wells dry up.

My eyes are open to reality now ... I am Yoruba but tinubu is not what we need, he is cut from old rags and we need to adorn Nigeria with fine linen ... I said this about buhari every time and I was absolutely right ... With tinubu it will be 10x worse. Don't throw your vote becasue that is the only time you will ever have a say for the next 8 years .

Is it that Yoruba proverbs are not blunders?

Urchins sef.

Most are Proverbs which useless and senseless zombidient can't comprehend of course. While the ones that are blunders are only few which Tinubu always corrected btw.

For example:

Church rats is a Proverb

Poisoned communion is a Proverb.

Dead fish can't make a soup sweet is a Proverb.

Balabala bolobolo are Yoruba words which means gibberish/rubbish. For example, if someone says you did that job balabala bolobolo. It means you did a rubbish job. Tinubu was simply saying his town hall meeting is innovative and different from balabala bolobolo, meaning his town hall meeting is different from gibberish/rubbish.

And several others which are Yoruba Proverbs.

Blunders was when he first said PD before correcting it to APC. Tinubu has only made few blunders which he always corrected btw.

After all, Peter Obi made his own blunders with his "Nassarawa is a great country". Why aren't the hypocritic senseless zombidients crying over the blunders of their GCE graduate?

Nigerians run oo shocked

He misuses words, sometimes doesn't remember them. He has problems moving. He is made to avoid debates where questions he didn't prepare for may expose his now poor analytic brain.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Tinubu has dementia, which is quite normal with age; and those pushing him forward have sinister motives.

Yes, Tinubu has made amusing blunders.

But he's still 1 billion times better than the other candidates COMBINED.

BAT will still win. That's your next President.

They are MAJOR issues!

We are seeing signs of obvious neurological disorder and they are saying this?!?!?

He's doing "Blu-blu-blu Boolabaa" now at an APC-sponsored town hall meeting.

What will he do on Amanpour or at the UN?

Besides, what happens when it gets worse?

Their man should be in retirement, but, because of their desire to suck Nigeria dry, they are peddling someone who will be too distracted by his health to really rule, so that they can do as they wish, even worse than they are doing with Buhari.

Pa Tinubu I am from Middle Belt and I dont care about you people's South Vs North debacle. But as an objective person I know that it is turn of South to be President. Your running will only reduce the Southern Votes for your Fellow Southerner Peter Obi.
If Atiku wins, a bad precedent is laid in Nigeria that one single tribe can do 2 terms and hand over to same tribe to do another 2 terms.
And if you Pa Tinubu wins, it means that an evil precedent is laid. That a Religion can do 2 terms and hand over to same religion which even has President and Vice from same religion. Nigeria is bigger than you and Atiku. Both of you should step down before 1st of January 2023.

Just imagine Tinubu representing Nigeria at UN General Assembly and all of a sudden starts muttering unknown words

A man who has shown that he is physically and mentally unfit to be the president of the most populated black country?

We should ignore the gaffes, the peeing on clothes, the arrogance, the ethnic bigotry, the pride, the corruption, the drug cases, the certificate forgery, the lack of paternal and maternal trace, the unsolved murder of political opponents

Where do we start to overlook abeg?

Please let us excuse Peter Obi.

He's a 3rd Class Dullard who graduated with a GCE from a miracle center.

He shamelessly ran away from the State he governed to a state his rival governed.
