The All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential candidate, Bola Tinubi, has made another incoherent statement.

National Daily reports that this is coming barely two weeks after Tinubu compared ‘poisonous Holy communion’ to climate change during an interactive session with Arewa Committee in Kaduna State.

The former Governor of Lagos State during the presentation of the campaign manifesto on Friday in Abuja said Nigerians against borrowings by President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration should stop using Mercedes Benz and Lexus brands of vehicles.

He said: “I stand before you proudly, noting that those who are afraid of the budget, the thoughts of borrowing. Yes, borrowing. If borrowing is a crime, entire America should be in jail. If borrowing is a crime, stop using Mercedes Benz and Lexus” 

This left many Nigerians confused online as to the correlation between the usage of particular brands of vehicles and concerns about huge national debts.
