President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has responded to the viral video of him slipping while trying to get on the presidential parade vehicle at Eagles Square in Abuja.
According to the President, he was only being “respectful” as he was performing a customary greeting called “dobale” to mark Democracy Day.
Tinubu made this known during the state Banquet Dinner at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, to mark this year’s Democracy Day.
With a dash of humour, Tinubu said, “Early this morning, I had a swagger and it’s on the social media. They were confused about whether I was doing Buga or doing babariga, But, It is a day to celebrate democracy while doing “Idobale” for the day.
“I am a traditional Yoruba boy and I did my ‘Idobale'”
