Tinubu Not Missing, Negotiating With European Investors – Governor

Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State has debunked what he claims as the propaganda over the whereabouts of President Bola Tinubu confirming that the Nigerian leader is scouring Europe in search of foreign investors.

Governor Sani spoke in an interview with Channels Television as he remonstrated with those he said had chosen to make politics and propaganda over the president’s disappearance from the radar following his appearance at the United Nations General Assembly, UNGA.

While noting that the president changed the narrative of Nigeria and Africa at the UNGA, Governor Sani said that it was regrettable that traducers would be spreading propaganda over his whereabouts instead of praising him for doing what he claimed no Nigerian or African leader had ever done at UNGA.

Asked of the whereabouts of the president in the interview with Channels, Sani said:
“That is propaganda. You know in Nigeria instead of them to be praising his activities at UNGA …because what Asiwaju did at the United Nations Assembly is simply unprecedented. Because he spoke as the leader of Africa and I can tell you what he has achieved in the two days that we were with him in New York I don’t think there is any leader in Africa who has done that.

“He discussed with a lot of important people in the private sector, a lot of bilateral meetings with other presidents, side meetings with presidents and that will give Nigeria a lot of opportunity. And he is also positioning Nigeria as the leader of Africa.

“That is the issue. People should be talking about governance, talking about what President Asiwaju has done for Nigeria instead of talking about rumours, talking about propaganda.

“There are two things in life. You either win propaganda battle or political battle. Asiwaju is winning political battle but the other people are winning propaganda battle.

“Propaganda battle has limitations and very soon they will stop it because he will prove them wrong. For me, that is key. Have we sat down and analysed President Asiwaju’s very important speech at the United Nations that drew the attention of leaders who are not even from Africa but from other continents.

“For the first time they have seen hope in Africa, they have seen a president that is going to speak for Africa. They have seen opportunities in Africa. For me, this is what we should be celebrating but in Nigeria we are wasting our time on propaganda.  But we should praise our leader for what he has done to reposition Nigeria to make us the leader in Africa.”

Following his assertions, the interviewer went back to the question asking the governor, “in the spirit of transparency and accountability, are you aware of the president’s location?”

Replying to the insinuations on the whereabouts of President Tinubu, Governor Uba Sani said:

“Listen to me, I am not going to be involved in that….Mr President as I am speaking with you is also busy talking, reaching out to other investors in Europe to ensure that Nigeria benefits from other meetings he has scheduled.

“So, why are people sitting down talking about that? Mr President is fine, he is doing very well. Myself, I only returned today (Wednesday), some have not even returned. This issue is not something that someone should waste time talking about.”
