The spokesman for the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, Festus Keyamo, has said the presidential candidate of the party will base his campaign on the achievements of the party.
Keyamo, who doubles as the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, argued that the party had achieved so much in the last seven years and could not shy away from campaigning on those achievements.
The party chieftain stated this when he appeared on Arise TV’s morning programme on Thursday, monitored by our correspondent.
He also dismissed insinuations from various quarters that the party’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, was suffering from failing health.
According to him, Seyi Tinubu, the son of the party’s presidential candidate, spoke to him about his father’s health.
Keyamo said Seyi told him that Tinubu was asleep when they spoke on the phone on Thursday morning, adding that the former Lagos State governor was hale and hearty.
He maintained that it is not mandatory for Tinubu to issue statements about his health and whereabouts because he is not the president.
The minister added, “He’s hale, hearty and healthy. He’s out of the country for a number of days. No controversy about his whereabouts.
“And he’s not a president to issue statements as to his whereabouts. And I spoke with his son this morning. I spoke with Seyi and he said Asiwaju is fine. He was sleeping.”
