‘It’s A Mild Misstep –  Presidential Aide Speaks On Tinubu’s Step Mishap

Following the circulation of videos showing President Tinubu momentarily losing his footing as he stepped into the vehicle at the event Square, the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Social Media, Dada Olusegun, has reacted to the President’s slip while boarding a parade vehicle at the June 12 Democracy Day celebration in Abuja.

In a post on his X handle on Wednesday, Olusegun reassured the public, stating, “Mr. President missed his step while climbing into the truck at the June 12 Democracy Day celebration and tripped. It was a mild misstep. He immediately went on with the ceremonial rounds. No issues.”

Despite the incident, the President quickly regained his balance and continued with the proceedings without further issues.

The ceremony at Eagles Square was a key event in the series of celebrations held nationwide to mark Nigeria’s annual Democracy Day.
