The presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Rabiu Kwankwaso, has urged his All Progressives Congress counterpart, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, to watch his ealth.
He is commending Tinubu’s choice of Kashim Shettima as running mate, saying both of them are good guys.
He, however, expresses some concern over Tinubu’s health, saying he should take it easy.
While speaking with Reuben Abati on Arise TV, Kwakwanso warned that campaigns are no joke.
He said, “But if you see my friend, Bola, tell him to take it easy, take good care of his health and make sure that… because I love him so much, he is my friend.
“This campaign is very rigorous, it requires a lot of effort and so on and so forth. I hope he will take it easy so that we can continue the struggle to ensure one solid and prosperous Nigeria,” he said.
“I’m so happy with that combination; my only worry is the platform (the APC). This platform…I don’t know.
“Bola Tinubu is a strategist. He is a god man I had reasons to sit with him an uncountable number of times from 1992 till date.
‘Bola Tinubu was my colleague in 1992. I was Deputy Speaker House of Reps and he was a Senator.
“We had many political battles with him in 1999 when we are together. I was the governor of Kano and he was governor of Lagos. We also worked together to form APC.
“Shettima was also my colleague as governor during my second term. He is a gentle man he is a good man. I wish him well.’
