Over a month ago when the former Lagos governor jetted out of the country to France at night, there have been rumours that he was rushed abroad for medical attention.<\/p>\n

Although his party, the All Progressives Congress, APC, insisted that the president-elect only traveled to have some rest and recuperate from the election stress, some stakeholders have questioned his state of health and whereabouts.<\/p>\n

Speaking with some party supporters shortly after arriving Abuja on Monday, Tinubu said that he has rested well and refreshed, stressing that he was prepared for the task ahead.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the tumultuous crowd who followed him home, the President-elect said: \u201cI\u2019m happy to be back. I have rested, I\u2019m refreshed and I\u2019m ready for the task ahead.<\/p>\n

\u201cForget about what the rumour mill may have told you. I\u2019m strong, very strong.\u201d<\/p>\n
