The All Progressives Party (APC) national leader Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has returned to Nigeria after undergoing knee surgery in London, United Kingdom.
The former governor of Lagos returned on Friday evening after he underwent surgery on his right knee as well as rigorous post-surgery physiotherapy on the said knee.
A statement by his media office said the former governor had surgery on his right knee, and also underwent physiotherapy following the operation.
“His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, returned to the country, landing in Lagos Friday evening, October 8. He arrived from London, United Kingdom,” the statement said.
“Contrary to unfounded rumour, he underwent no other surgical procedures and contemplates none in the future.
“His recuperation has been without complication and ahead of the schedule by the attending surgeon.
“He has returned fully healed from the knee surgery and fully committed to doing his modest part of advancing the cause of progressive democratic good governance throughout our beloved nation.”
Tinubu expressed his appreciation to President Muhammadu Buhari, as well as other political leaders, who visited him while he was in London.
Hours before his return, the South West Agenda 2023 (SWAGA ‘23) was launched. The group is a campaign group championing the candidacy of Tinubu for the 2023 presidency.
The politician is yet to officially declare his interest to run for presidency.
