The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola has denied a report trending on social media that he is battling with COVID-19 in France.
There were speculations on Sunday morning about the health status of the national leader of the ruling party, APC, following a publication by The Page Newsdesk that Mr Tinubu has been hospitalised in France even before the New Year.
The report, which did not produce enough details to back the claims made about Mr Tinubu, said the politician was battling with COVID-19.
A statement issued by Tunde Rahman the media aide to the former Lagos state governor said Tinubu was in London and not France to reflect on the outgone year and prepare for the new year.
According to him, the APC Chieftain has done COVID-19 test 15 times and all results came negative.
“That’s a lie from the pit of hell. Asiwaju is very okay. He is very fine and not sick. He does not have COVID-19.
“If you must know, we have done COVID-19 test 15 times, each time he felt we had travelled and mingled with many people and could be vulnerable even though he always wore his face mask, but he has been certified negative 15 times.
“Yes, he is abroad. Not in France, but in London resting. So you can see the falsity in that information you talked about,” he said when asked.
