♦ As if to prove the previous point further, this happened. In March of 2017, it was announced that Tinubu was to spar in a boxing match against Evander Holyfield, former World Champion in heavy weight. The match was a charity event that was intended to attract international attention to numerous problems of the African continent, especially serious diseases in children.
The 54-year-old former champion and 65-year-old former governor were supposed to fight on May 24. But when the date of the match rolled in, Tinubu didn’t show up! Even though a lot of people thought Asiwaju got too scared, he has issued an official apology, where he stated that he had some “national assignment” to take care of.
♦ Despite only being the National Leader of the APC, some people claim that Bola Tinubu has become much more than that. It has been said that he tells the current President, Muhammadu Buhari, what to do. He also has an unofficial status of the nation’s untouchable grandfather.
