Former senator representing Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani, has defended President Bola Tinubu after falling at the Eagles Square in Abuja on Wednesday.

He defended the president by saying presidents are also humans.

Sani, in a statement via his handle on X , said anyone can trip and fall.

The formal lawmaker recalled that the United States, US President, Joe Biden; and former President of Cuba, Fidel Castro, all experienced the same incident.

He said, “Not Just President Tinubu, anyone alive can trip and fall; it happened to President Biden and Fidel Castro. Presidents are human beings and mortals.”

Recall that President Tinubu earlier today, slipped at the Eagles Square, venue of the 2024 Democracy Day celebration.

Tinubu slipped while boarding the parade vehicle, shortly after he arrived at the venue.

But after the President slipped, his security details and some aides immediately rushed to him and assisted him to regain his balance.

The presidency, however, issued a statement on the incident, saying there are no issues with the president.
