National
Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu, Friday, failed to
show up for the widely publicised boxing bout against former Heavyweight World
Boxing Champion, Evander Holyfield to mark Lagos States 50th anniversary
celebrations.
An official statement of apology delivered to the eagerly
waiting crowd and the battle-ready ex-Champ by the Lagos state Governor, Mr.
Akinwumi Ambode who represented Tinubu said that the APC national leader could
not show up due to urgent “national assignment.”
Governor Ambode announced Tinubu’s absence at about 10.28pm. Also, Tinubu’s Media aide, Mr. Tunde Rahman corroborated Mr. Ambode’s apology from Tinubu by saying that, “There was no embarrassment of any form there because Gov. Ambode stood in for him. Don’t forget this was a charity event.
Asiwaju Tinubu had hosted Evander Holyfield in his Bourdillon, Ikoyi residence where he dressed him up like an Eyo Masquerade, which the former heavyweight champion said he would cherish all his life.”
