There have been report in some section of the media that the candidate of the All Progressives Congress in in the February 25 2023 presidential election, Bola Ahmed Tinubu is planning to take a Muslim wife before the election, but thus has been denied by the APC Presidential Campaign Council.
The APC PCC in a statement titled : “Stop the fake news: Tinubu is not taking a new wife,” said, “We have seen fake news that has gone viral on social media purporting that the All Progressives Congress Presidential Candidate, Bola Tinubu, is set to take a new wife.
“This is what it is: fake and groundless news. HE Asíwájú is enjoying his marriage to his wife, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, who is blessed with excellent children. He is not ready to take an additional wife, whether a Christian or a Muslim.
“We know the intention of those peddling a new Muslim wife is not only to cause discord within the extremely peaceful family of Tinubu but to also create disaffection within the Christian community.
“Tinubu is at present focused on his campaign to emerge the president of this country come February 25, 2023 in order to rekindle the hope of our people in a better, stronger, more secure and prosperous Nigeria.”
The statement assured that Oluremi is focused; traveling across Nigeria to campaign for Tinubu, stressing that the couple would not be distracted.
Tinubu’s wife, Oluremi, is an assistant pastor with the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, and a former Lagos West Senator.
