Bayo Onanuga, the Director of Media and Publicity for the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council, cleared the air on a viral photo supposedly showing the party's presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, on Friday.
The image showed an elderly guy who resembled Tinubu being helped out of bed by a white caretaker.
Tinubu's absence from the official signing of a peace deal by political parties and presidential contenders on Thursday had fueled speculation about his location.
Onanuga, in a statement said Tinubu was resting in his London home and preparing for the ‘gruelling’ campaigns.
He said, “Here is a fake photo of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu forwarded to me just now, another handiwork of purveyors of deep fake. Whoever is behind this malicious falsehood will face the judgment of God at the right time. The man in the photo does not look like Asiwaju, except for his baldness. The man is fatter. Tinubu is slimmer.
“Look at the frame of his glasses, it is certainly not Tinubu’s trademark frame. Let me assure Nigerians, who genuinely want to know Tinubu’s whereabouts, that he is in London, in his house.
“Tinubu left Nigeria on Saturday night for a short break and in readiness for what will certainly be a grueling campaign. I saw him and spoke with him two hours before he left. He was hale and hearty. He was not ill. He didn’t go to treat any ailment.
“We spoke today at about 2 pm. And he told me how his one-week retreat has not made any difference. He was still working like in Nigeria. Today, he still burnt his candle till 4.30am.
“Nigerians should stop spreading rumours about Tinubu, who by the grace of God and fellow Nigerians, will be elected our leader next February. We should learn from the divine fate of the man who wished Tinubu dead.”
