Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, has risen to the defense of President Tinubu after he slipped at the Eagles Square in Abuja.
Sani noted that many presidents have slipped in the past, citing the examples of US, President, Joe Biden; and former President of Cuba, Fidel Castro.
Posting on X, the former lawmaker said anyone can trip and fall.
Sani said: “Not Just President Tinubu, anyone alive can trip and fall; it happened to President Biden and Fidel Castro. Presidents are human beings and mortals.”
On Wednesday, Tinubu slipped while boarding the parade vehicle at the Eagles Square, venue of the 2024 Democracy Day celebration.
He had approached the vehicle shortly after he arrived at the venue.
When the President slipped, his security details and some aides immediately rushed to him and assisted him to regain his balance.
On his part, Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Social Media, Dada Olusegun, insisted that there are no issues with the president.
Dada explained that Tinubu only missed his steps.
