Festus Keyamo, spokesperson of the All Progressives Congress
(APC) presidential campaign council, says Bola Tinubu, the party’s flagbearer,
is an “avid cyclist”.
Keyamo spoke on Wednesday during an interview with Channels
Television.
Last Sunday, Tinubu shared a video of him cycling on a
fitness bike.
The video came amid concerns over his whereabouts, following his absence at the signing of the peace accord for the 2023 elections.
The video elicited varied reactions as some Nigerians
believe that it was published to prove that the APC presidential candidate is
hale and hearty.
Responding to questions on the whereabouts of Tinubu, Keyamo
said the former Lagos governor is not currently in Nigeria, and that he will
return to the country in “a couple of days”.
“In my Twitter post on it, I said we are not trying to prove
anything to anybody. Our candidate is not struggling to prove himself to
anybody,” he said.
“People who are close
to him know that he is an avid cyclist. He does that all the time. It is his
regular routine. So, we are not trying to prove anything to anybody.
“This period of time, people make all kinds of enquiries —
some mischievous and some genuine. To the mischief makers, we want to prove
that the tail does not wag the dog; it is the dog that wags the tail.
“So, it is not at every point in time when you ask
mischievous question that we will be struggling to prove ourselves. We are not
dancing to the tune and music of the opposition.
“We have our own tune and music and we will play our music
the way we want to play our music and dance the way we want to dance.”
