Tinubu is in France, he didn’t meet with CJN in London — APC campaign
The presidential campaign council of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC has dismissed the claim that the president elect, Senator Bola Tinubu met with Olukayode Ariwoola, the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN).
This came as a reaction to claims that the president elect met with the CJN in the United Kingdom, UK.
The media director of the campaign council, Bayo Onanuga in a statement dismissed the rumour.
He described the claim as an attempt to make people doubt the credibility of the victory of Tinubu.
He disclosed that the president elect is in Paris, the capital city of France and not UK.
“The story was a pure concoction from the hallucinating minds of hatchet men bent on creating doubts and public distrust about the legitimacy of our recent election, which was won by Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” the media director said.
“We refute emphatically that there has been no clandestine meeting between the president-elect and the respected chief justice of our country, anywhere. It’s pure fabricated news, groundless in fact and authenticity.
“To show that the story was a mere salacious fiction, meant to draw traffic to the discredited purveyor, it claimed the Chief Justice left Nigeria for London on 11 March, on a wheelchair to board a plane.
“The president-elect left Nigeria on 21 March, 10 clear days thereafter. What kind of appointment or secret meeting will the two men have arranged in London, with such widely disparate arrival dates, except in the imagination of the false news merchants?
“We can confirm that the president-elect, who left Nigeria Tuesday, has not been in London. He is right now in France to have a deserved rest, after a hectic campaign that began in January 2022.
“He will go to London thereafter before proceeding to Mecca for the lesser Hajj.”
