A video has surfaced showing Nigerian President, Bola Tinubu, leaving St Mary’s Hospital in London, United Kingdom, sparking speculations that he secretly visited for an emergency medical treatment.
The video, which surfaced on Friday and seen by SaharaReporters, showed Tinubu moving out of the hospital with some of his aides and medical personnel accompanying him till he entered his car.
Several netizens have regarded Tinubu’s action as deceptive by hiding his visit to the UK hospital from the general public.
One of the President’s renowned critics and activist, Mahdi Shehu said, “TINUBU LIED: His picture with King Charles was shared to deceive people. He was at St Mary emergency treatment center in London for emergency medical care. No matter the hide and seek, what is destined will happen willy- nilly.”
Recall that President Bola Tinubu was reported to have visited King Charles Phillips in the United Kingdom on Thursday.
This was announced by the Royal family in a post shared on X.
The details of the visit were not announced.
“Yesterday, The President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria visited His Majesty at Buckingham Palace,” the Royal Family on Thursday posted on its official X account along with a picture of the two leaders shaking hands.
This development about the visit to St Mary’s came amid rising concerns at the home front on the policies of the President, which have been described as repressive and anti-people.
There have also been concerns that the Tinubu’s presidency is detached from the realities of the masses.
Many commentators have also expressed worry about the travels embarked on by the President which cost the country a fortune.
