365news gathered that The All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for president, Bola Tinubu, has been advised to get his late mother, Abibatu Mogaji, to vouch for his age, according to House Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila.
This was said by Gbajabiamila on Saturday during a speech at an APC rally in Lagos.
Tinubu’s year of birth has been a contentious issue for a while.
Wikipedia disabled the former governor of Lagos’ profile page last year due to what it described as “persistent vandalism.”
Gbajabiamila has now said those doubting Tinubu’s age should ask Abibatu, who passed on in 2013.
“They will ask you a lot of questions. They will ask you: ‘Who is Tinubu?’ Tell them, Gbajabiamila said Tinubu is the greatest politician in modern-day Nigerian politics.
“They will ask you ‘How old is he; what is his age?’ Tell them, Gbajabiamila said if they doubt his age, they should go and meet his mother to reconfirm,” he said.
Gbajabiamila also hit back at those who claimed Tinubu didn’t go school, insisting that “he is more educated than all the contestants put together”.
