Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has been challenged by Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party's (PDP) presidential candidate for the 2023 elections.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate Tinubu was challenged by Atiku to a one-hour television interview as a prove he is fit for presidency.
In response to the Tinubu Campaign Organization's claim that he was unprepared to serve as president due to some of the topics covered in his most recent television interview, the former vice president challenged Tinubu to accept the Challenge.

"We would like to challenge Bola Tinubu to subject himself to an hour long interview, like the Waziri did, and if he is able to be as articulate and mentally present as our candidate, then he can talk.
"Until then, we will only want to remind him and his yes men that they are not in a position to point fingers when they have not sat on the hot seat," Atiku said in a statement by Paul Ibe, his Media Adviser.
Ibe added that the former vice president was “amused to read the knee jerk response from the Tinubu Campaign Organisation to the wave making interview granted by Atiku Abubakar”.

He said the Tinubu campaign "exposed its gross desperation and vacuousness by citing the provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended) 1999, to declare Waziri Atiku Abubakar’s stance on engaging in a side business while he was a young custom officer as a breach of the law. It is pertinent to educate the Tinubu campaign organisation that Nigeria is not under a military regime and our Constitutions are not retroactive in nature."
"Atiku Abubakar has earned Masters degree from Anglia Ruskin University. We challenge any of the present Presidential candidates to present an equal or higher degree.
"Moreover, his university attendance is a matter of verified record. Can we say the same about some other persons?"
