Fortunately, his aides quickly rushed to his aid and helped him back to his feet.
The incident didn’t dampen the President’s spirits, as he continued to wave and greet the crowd with a smile.
The parade proceeded without any further incidents, marking a successful celebration of Nigeria’s democracy. President Tinubu’s resilience and good humor in the face of the mishap earned him praise from the crowd and onlookers.
The incident served as a brief moment of levity in an otherwise solemn celebration of Nigeria’s democratic journey.
