Tinubu and El-Rufai in Kaduna recently
The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, has described as a slip of tongue, his statement while commending Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, for his transformational leadership in the state.
Tinubu, while speaking at the 7th edition of the Kaduna Investment Summit in Kaduna on Saturday, said Governor El-Rufai “turned a rotten situation” he met on ground in Kaduna into “a bad one”.
However, the APC presidential candidate, in a statement issued on Sunday by the spokesperson of the Tinubu-Shettima Presidential Campaign Council, Bayo Onanuga, said he meant to say “to a great one”.

He added: “It was a mere slip, that is not unusual in life, even among leaders of nations.
“We recognise we are in political season where everything is latched on for deliberate distortion and twisted mischief.
“While mischief makers went so low, we noted that the audience at KadInvest 7.0 followed Asiwaju Tinubu with rapt attention and knew he only had a slip.
“We can only tell mischief makers to look for better and productive things to do with their time,” Onanuga stated.
