Dr Doyin Okupe, a former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has said Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), will perform well if he emerges Nigeria's president in 2023.

Appearing as a guest on Arise News TV on Friday, August 13, Okupe said Tinubu, a former Lagos state governor, will be a good president.

Asked those he will consider if he were to do a shortlist of competent politicians capable of ruling the nation, the physician turned politician said: Bola Tinubu, to me, will be a good president. I believe so. I have had personal relationships with him.

"One day I sat with Bola Tinubu so many years ago and it was a Saturday and there was nobody there for about four hours and we spoke. "From that day, I have respected the man. He has his own problems, he has his own faults but I believe that if he has the chance he can do well. I believe so.

"Whether he will have the chance or not, I do not know."
