The singer said he is confident that Atiku is more healthy than All Progressive Congress (APC) presidential candidate Bola Tinubu, and will lead the country effectively if he wins the election.
He said, “I am more concerned about what the country needs than what I need. I was offered N150 million and N80 million car to to leave Atiku for another candidate but I declined. I refused because I know Atiku will be a better leader in this country.
“How can I support Tinubu’s candidacy when I know he is sick? Our religion teaches us to choose a healthy leader, because it is part of the virtue of choosing a leader.”
