He made the announcement in a statement posted on the official website of the APC presidential candidate and running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima.
The statement read, “A massive crowd of APC supporters welcomed the presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to Minna on Wednesday, as he arrived for the mega rally.
“The cheering crowd was unprecedented, according to journalists at the Trade Fair Complex, venue of the rally.
“Tinubu, who held another successful rally in Kaduna on Tuesday, arrived in Minna in the evening of the same day for a series of meetings with APC leaders.
“The crowd was so huge that Tinubu spoke briefly to appreciate the supporters and identified the party candidates seeking elective positions.
“Contrary to the rumours that he was rushed off stage because of health concerns, Tinubu cut it short to attend to other programmes of the day.
“He commended the party supporters for coming out en masse to witness the flag off of the presidential campaign.”
Following the rally, Tinubu inaugurated his campaign office in the city, which was donated by Mohammed Malagi, Publisher of Blueprint Newspaper and Chairman, Strategic Communications of the Asiwaju Bola Tinubu Presidential Campaign Council.
He also paid a visit to the Emir of Minna and was later hosted by the Governor of Niger, Abubakar Bello, at a luncheon.
