The national Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, has returned to Nigeria after going out of the country to the United Kingdom for 10 days, SaharaReporters learnt.
The presidential hopeful, according to reports, landed on Sunday at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport.
From photos shared by his supporters on the social media, Tinubu was welcomed by members of his campaign team for the 2023 presidential election.
10 days ago, report went viral how the former Lagos governor jetted out of Nigeria to seek medical attention abroad.
However, a source in his camp claimed he went to visit his family in the UK. Also, his media aide, Tunde Rahman said his principal went to the UK for “meetings and consultations”.
While in London, he had meetings with the UK chapter of the APC. His trip came barely three weeks after he informed President Muhammadu Buhari of his ambition to contest the position of president in 2023.
Tinubu also paid visits to some Northern states including Niger and Katsina to sell his ambition.
He had also met with former Head of State, who annulled the June 12, 1993, presidential election, General Ibrahim Babangida, over his plans to be President of Nigeria.
According to sources, Tinubu left the country after admitting to having a stressful time touring states for his “lifelong presidential ambition”.
His destination was, however, not disclosed at the time.
