Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has expressed concern following President Bola Tinubu’s fall at the Democracy Day celebrations in Abuja.
Daily Sun had reported that Tinubu, 72, stumbled while entering a ceremonial vehicle at the 2024 Democracy Day event.
It was observed that the President lost his balance just as he was about to step into the vehicle and fell before being hurriedly approached by his security detail.
The incident has generated a flurry of reactions from Nigerians especially on social media.
Weighing in an X post, Atiku said, “I sincerely sympathise with President Bola Tinubu, @officialABAT, over this unfortunate incident as he was set to review the parade on Democracy Day. I do hope that all is well with him.”
Meanwhile, another opposition figure and former Senator for Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani said there was nothing special about the President’s fall.
“Not Just President Tinubu, anyone alive can trip and fall; it happened to President Biden and Fidel Castro.
“Presidents are human beings and mortals,” he tweeted.
