Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State says the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has life and does not need to show any proof of life.
“A man that has life does not need to show any proof of life. Asiwaju has life and he doesn’t need to show any proof of life and you can see that,” Umahi said on a Channels Television’s programme on Monday.
Amid questions about his health status, Tinubu on Sunday took to his verified social media handles and shared a workout video of himself, saying he is healthy and ready to serve Nigerians.
Asked why Tinubu showed “proof of life” through the workout video, Umahi said Tinubu is well and does not need to show any proof of life.
“Nobody is totally well and nobody is totally sick. That is one point. Another point is that Nigerians are so petty. A man that is doing his workout is being videoed and circulated on social media without his knowledge,” the governor noted.
“I don’t think we should concentrate on intangibles because life is like a bus and you don’t know where the next bus stop is. Some of the people talking about the health of leaders of this country do not even know where their own bus stop is coming from. Every life and death rests in the hands of God,” he added.
