Onanuga revealed that his principal is still suffering from a knee injury, but emphasized that Tinubu is not suffering from any other ailment

Mr Bayo Onanuga, President Bola Tinubu's Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, has revealed that the president is currently recovering from knee surgery in London.

Remember when Tinubu had knee surgery in London in 2021? This is prior to the start of the general election campaign.

In response to an inquiry on the President's health, Onanuga told the Nigerian Tribune that the President has no other ailments but is currently recovering from knee surgery.

In his words, he says, “No, he was not sick. We made this clear to Nigerians. Tinubu was as fit as the fiddle in the run-up to that election. Before that campaign began, I think a year before, he went for knee surgery, which was not a secret as President Buhari even went to see him in London when he was recuperating.

“So, that was what he went to do - knee surgery. That was why he could not walk properly.

“When you do knee surgery, you cannot be walking like a 25-year-old man. He is still nursing it up till now because it was a major surgery. It is not that he has any other ailment.” he said.
