Popular musician and flutist, Tee Mac Omatshola Iseli, has put the age of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2023 elections, Bola Tinubu, at 86, noting that he is not fit to run Nigeria.
Tee Mac, who was once the President of the Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria (PMAN), noted that the former Lagos governor’s total existence was too shrouded in secrecy to be given the job of leading Nigeria.
The musician was responding to a post by one Yemi Olakitan on Facebook, declaring his support for Tinubu.
Tee Mac said Tinubu was far older than he is claiming, and was not qualified to run the country as president with all the unanswered questions surrounding his life.
For instance, he pointed out that, the controversies surrounding Tinubu’s age, background and how he made his money remained unresolved.
“Anybody can choose any candidate, but an intelligent person will ask himself the question: do I choose rightly? Is the man qualified? Is he honest? Did he tell us the truth about his age, background and how he made his money? Is this man healthy enough at 86 to take up the task of a totally run-down country?” Tee Mac wrote.
Tee Mac said he stopped visiting Tinubu after he sold President Muhammadu Buhari to Nigerians in 2015, adding that even as his in-law, he won’t support his ambition to rule Nigeria.
“You see, Tinubu is my in-law. His wife Remi is my cousin. Her Itsekiri mother and my Itsekiri mother are sisters. I have known Tinubu since the mid-1980s personally and even arranged for him to stay in my stepfather’s house (Sir Mobolaji Bank-Anthony) in London, when he went on exile.
“I stopped supporting him and stopped family visits etc when he sold that Buhari to the nation in 2015. My advice to the nation is that this man is absolutely not qualified to become our next president,” he wrote.
