Tinubu called to answer basic questions about attending high school

Speaking on Arise TV's popularly viewed morning show, on Thursday, September 08, 2022, Shehu said that the credibility on Tinubu should not be based on what he did as Lagos State governor, but what he says and who he is as a person.

The questions Tinubu has been called to answer: "What town was the school located?; maybe the school has been overrun by government's development in Lagos state. Who are your secondary school classmates? You say you were a good mathematics student; who was your mathematics teacher? Who was your principal? Who were your other teachers?"

Shehu further addressed the speculations on Tinubu's health. He called on the presidential candidate to explain to Nigerians why his hands shake and why there are multiple videos of him falling down without being pushed.
