National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu did not travel out of the country contrary to views, just as he visited Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Saturday in Marina.
He commiserated with Sanwo-Olu over the mayhem that engulfed Lagos.
One of the reporters asked Tinubu: “Sir, we were told that you were in London, you were in Paris, when did you return?”
Tinubu replied: “I didn’t go no where, I am a Lagosian, I still hold the title of Asiwaju of Lagos and I am still the JAGABAN”
