Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, nearly collapsed during the party’s campaign event in Ekiti State.
According to reports, the former Governor of Lagos State, his running mate, Kashim Shettima, and other party leaders stormed the state on Friday for a campaign rally.
The gathering, held at the Ekiti Parapo Pavillion in Ado-Ekiti, the state capital, was packed with APC supporters.

However, a video uploaded by Dino Melaye, the spokesman for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential campaign council, shows Tinubu stumbling and being helped by one of his staffers.
Melaye mocked the APC candidate, criticizing how Tinubu was imposed on Nigerians to become president.
He wrote: “See what APC wants to package and give Nigerians. God forbid. From sai Baba to sai Kaka”
Meanwhile, the Rivers State chapter of the APC has suffered a huge setback as party leaders disagree just days before the presidential election in 2023.
According to Newsmen, there was squabbling on Friday when party chieftains met in the state to plot and organize for the party’s presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu’s, campaign rally.
The APC has planned a presidential campaign rally in Port Harcourt, the state capital, on February 15, 2023.
However, a meeting held prior to the event resulted in a stalemate on Friday.

According to news reports, today’s meeting was the first at the request of the state’s APC governorship candidate, Tonye Cole, but it ultimately failed to achieve its goal as party leaders clashed.
