Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, has come to the defense of President Bola Tinubu after the latter slipped at the Eagles Square in Abuja.
Sani took to social media platform X to remind Nigerians that even world leaders like US President Joe Biden and former Cuban President Fidel Castro have experienced similar mishaps.
According to Sani: “Not Just President Tinubu, anyone alive can trip and fall; it happened to President Biden and Fidel Castro. Presidents are human beings and mortals.”
On Wednesday, Tinubu slipped at the Eagles Square, venue of the 2024 Democracy Day celebration.
Tinubu slipped while boarding the parade vehicle.
He had approached the vehicle shortly after he arrived at the venue.
When the President slipped, his security details and some aides immediately rushed to him and assisted him to regain his balance.
On his part, Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Social Media, Dada Olusegun, insisted that there are no issues with the president.
Dada explained that Tinubu only missed his steps.
