Expressing confidence in the strength of PDP candidate, Melaye said: “We challenge both (Tinubu and Atiku) of them; they should go for a medical examination because the constitution says that you must be physically and mentally fit to be President.”

Responding via a press statement on Sunday, the Director of Special Media Projects and New Media, of the PCC, Femi Fani-Kayode, said all the allegations against Tinubu smack of nothing but fear of the impending defeat in t2023.
Fani-Kayode maintained that “compared to Atiku Abubakar, the Jagaban is as fit as a fiddle.
“And unlike the former Vice President he (Tinubu) has nothing to hide, he has no skeletons in his cupboard, he does not visit the dark places and he is pure in body, spirit and soul.
“Atiku cannot come anywhere near Asiwaju in terms of his mental or physical virility or acumen.
“Whether mentally, physically or spiritually Atiku is very far behind. Worse of all he lacks intellectual substance. All you need to do is speak to him for ten minutes to know that his head is empty and that there is nothing between his ears.
“Atiku and his camp know that Jagaban will win this election hands down and as each day passes it is getting clearer. That is why they are so jittery.
“That is why they resort to nothing but falsehood, insults and abuse. That is why the only thing they talk about is Jagaban’s health and age,” the statement read in part.
