After a viral video showing President-elect, Bola Tinubu and Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, in an aircraft belonging to the Guinean government surfaced, Yara revealed the video was shot years ago.
Speaking to Daily Sun, he said the viral video was shot sometime in 2016 when Tinubu visited Guinea as guest of then President Conde during the country’s independence anniversary celebration and it was Tinubu’s second time visiting Guinea.
According to Yara, Tinubu’s first visit to Guinea was in 2015 after he hosted former President Conde in Lagos earlier. He said him, Tinubu and Sanwo-Olu, who was not governor then, were travelling in the helicopter from Guinean capital to Mamu, in the Fula region of the country, to attend independence anniversary celebration, as, according to him, then President Conde used to move the state function related to the anniversary from region to region every year, when he was in power.
