President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has explained why the president can’t walk properly.
Onanuga disclosed that his
principal still nurses a knee injury.
He made the disclosure while
stressing that Tinubu was not nursing any other ailment.
In 2021, Tinubu had knee
surgery in London, which was before he commenced his presidential campaign.
However, Onanuga said the
surgery was responsible for the president’s inability to walk properly.
Responding to questions from
Tribune, the presidential aide said Tinubu is not sick.
According to Onanuga: “No, he
was not sick. We made this clear to Nigerians. Tinubu was as fit as the fiddle in
the run-up to that election.
“Before that campaign began, I
think a year before, he went for knee surgery, which was not a secret as
President Buhari even went to see him in London when he was recuperating.
“So, that was what he went to
do – knee surgery. That was why he could not walk properly.
“When you do knee surgery, you
cannot walk like a 25-year-old man. He is still nursing it up till now because
it was a major surgery. It is not that he has any other ailment.”
