The United Kingdom chapter of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, has dismissed speculations that its presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, was receiving treatment in a London hospital.

The party said the former Lagos governor has been holding consultations with party leaders.

Chairman, APC UK Presidential Campaign Council, Mr Joseph Adebola, in a statement on Thursday, said though some Tinubu’s detractors would wish him dead, the APC standard bearer is fine and kicking.

The development came as it emerged that governors of the party, the Senator Abdullahi Adamu-led National Working Committee, NWC, and the Presidential Campaign Council, PCC, are set to meet again to finalise their plans for the flag off of the campaign in Abuja.

A top party source told Vanguard that at Wednesday’s meeting of the trio, the PCC had been asked to finish up everything regarding the composition and membership of the council.

On Tinubu’s London trip, Adebola said people who though evil against Tinubu’s health would be disappointed as all speculations about his health were untrue.

“For the records, Tinubu had been having strategic meetings with APC’s critical stakeholders here in the UK and had remained his vibrant and confident self.

“In one of the recent engagements in London, the APC presidential candidate held a strategic meeting with some members of his campaign planning team.

“The team included Alhaji Ibrahim Masari, Senator Tokunbo Afikuyomi, Deputy Director of the PCC planning committee, Chief Pius Akinyelure, and a host of progressives political gurus here in the UK,” Adebola said.
