The Iyaloja of Lagos also dispelled rumours about his father having health issues, stressing that there is no need to worry about the health of the former governor.
She said: “Everybody can say whatever they like. Even vehicles break down. He (Tinubu) was down for some time. He was taken care of; now he is healthy. It’s very obvious, we can see it.”
Reacting to her father’s chances of becoming the next Nigeria’s leader, Tinubu-Ojo, said the crisis rocking the party will not affect her father’s chances of winning the election.

“I believe strongly the convention is going to hold on the 26th of March, In sha Allah (God willing),” she said.
