Former governor of Lagos state and APC leader Bola Ahmed Tinubu is said to be returning to Nigeria on Sunday, Oct. 10 so that he can appear strong enough for the 2023 presidential election.
Some sources have told Saharareporters that the APC chieftain will be welcomed in a grand way by his political associates at the Nigerian Police College, Ikeja, Lagos.
The sources also revealed that after his visit on Sunday he would return to the UK to continue with his recuperation.
The source said: Tinubu is planning a choreographed return to Nigeria on Sunday. Baba (Tinubu) will return for more surgeries shortly after. A grand welcome is being arranged at the Nigeria Police College in Ikeja, Lagos.
“That’s if everything goes as planned and his health permits him to take the gruesome trip – because the trip is also going to tell on his recuperation.”
Naija News recalls that during the visit of the House of Representatives northern caucus to his home in London, Tinubu revealed that while other aspects of his treatment were going fine he was finding physiotherapy quite gruesome.
He then thanked the delegation for their presence and said he was doing well because of them and God. The former Lagos governor had a knee surgery in John Hopkins University Maryland, US.
Tinubu allegedly planned to have his surgery in Paris but when there were rumors about his death in Nigeria he decided to travel to the US for the surgery.
He is currently in his home in the UK recuperating and undergoing physiotherapy.
