The Chief Whip of the Senate and Senator representing Abia North, Orji Uzor Kalu has hinted that the opposition will continue to attack the personality of the foremost presidential candidate in the country and national leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the general election approaches.
Kanu sounded the warning on Saturday via his Facebook page as he refuted reports that Tinubu was denied visa into the United States.
The federal senator attributed the baseless to the handiwork of the opposition.
He said that Tinubu postponed his trip to the United States, informing that the information available to him from the Department of State was that the presidential candidate will be received in the country in the third week of December.
His words “As the election draws closer, the opposition will spread more fake news against our presidential candidate but we should always ignore and keep our eyes on the ball.
“The news that Tinubu was denied visa to the USA is as fake as other fake news. Tinubu postponed the travel himself and was never denied visa.
“The State Department of the US confirmed to me that Tinubu will be received in the third week of December.
“As the presidential candidate of our party with outstanding personality, he will be warmly welcomed in the United States”.
