File photo: Bola Tinubu returns, salutes supporters
The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar’s aide has reacted to the report of the President-elect, Bola Tinubu departing Nigeria for Europe.
Atiku’s spokesman, Daniel Bwala, said contrary to the claims of Tinubu’s spokesman, Tinubu’s trip was a medical follow-up and not a working trip.
Bwala said in his tweet: “Now they have learned to call the medical follow-up trip a working trip. Hold on; he is not yet the president, so technically, it is wrong to call it a working trip or visit. His media people should learn to humanize him so they do not have to make lies statecraft.
“We have seen the movie before. Whilst PMB’s media people were busy saying the president is on a working trip or visit, PMB keeps saying “I have never been this sick before”. I thought Tinubu’s media aides would learn from that; alas if it didn’t Dey, it didn’t Dey.”
Earlier, a statement by Tinubu’s spokesperson, Tunde Rahman, said the President-elect will use the opportunity of his trip to Europe to finetune the transition plans, programmes and policy options with key aides without distractions.
Tinubu is also expected to engage with investors and allies to market investment opportunities for the country during his trip, he had said.
