This is bad. Again those around him have not done well especially that ADC.

Anyone, regardless of age, can experience this.
Being a president doesn’t prevent you from tripping and falling.
It was just an accident, nothing more.
Wish him well.

It rained yesterday… They should have cleaned the car thoroughly. This is pure negligence. 😒

Sometimes, we need to be honest with ourselves, even if we don’t like the idea of him being the President of Nigeria. It’s normal for someone to make misteps – it can happen to anyone. It also happen to US president Joe Biden

An old man missed his step you are singing hallelujah, even young ones do. Do you ever want to grow old? Do you ever want to see your dream come to reality? Tinubu is living his dreams. Continue working on yours
