"I’M ONLY A FEW MONTHS OLDER THAN YOU" – TINUBU SAYS AS HE CELEBRATES KUKAH AT 70

The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, has said that he is only a few months older than the Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Bishop Matthew Kukah, who celebrated his 70th birthday on Yesterday.

Disregarding speculations on his age, Tinubu reiterated that he is also 70 years and a few months older than the celebrant, Kukah, saying he understands the institution that he (Kukah) is building. He however said they both have a bigger responsibility in building Nigeria.

In his words, “You are building an institution in the honour of your 70, I am 70 too I could still contribute. I am just months older than you are.

“But Bishop, you will help build Nigeria. The greatness of a nation is on your shoulder. It’s on my shoulder too and we must build it together. I must and I will contribute handsomely and personally to build and see to the completion of that institution.”
