The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu has said he is ready to debate from morning till night.
This comes on the heels of the criticism that greeted his incessant refusal to attend interactive sessions attended by other presidential candidates.
Tinubu’s absence at Arise Town hall meeting on Sunday, December 4, had created a stir as his critics said he might have stayed away because he could not withstand the rigour.
Also, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had accused him of avoiding debates because he has nothing to tell Nigerians.
However, addressing some young Nigerians in London, Tinubu said debate was not an issue while pledging to make himself available for debate going forward.

“I am ready to debate with you from morning till night… and I’m speaking in London, not in Jigawa.
“It is great that you are alive to tell the story just giving the assurance never to give up… Broadband creation, energy that you talked about.. if they’ve taken our advice.. in the beginning of democracy in 1999, we brought in investment.
“My Deputy then is here.. and then so many other innovative things….,” he said.
Recall the APC flag-bearer had said Nigerian news outlets are only interested in making money in the guise of inviting him for debate.
“I see myself as a marketable individual. You want to use me to make money and I’m saying no,” Tinubu was quoted as saying during his interactive session at Chatham House in London.
