Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, on Wednesday, mocked President Bola Tinubu over the earlier embarrassing incident at Eagle Square, Abuja.

Tinubu had earlier on Wednesday missed his step and fell while walking into a parade vehicle at the Eagle Square in commemoration of Democracy Day.

The president, who had earlier delivered a nationwide broadcast, arrived at Eagle Square for the parade on Wednesday morning.

Military officers and some personal aides immediately surrounded the President, who was dressed in a white native attire popularly known as agbada and his signature cap.

He struggled to save himself by holding on to the vehicle, but landed on the ground while his aides rushed to support him back to his feet.

The parade later continued as he waved to the crowd while the vehicle slowly made its way through.

The incident has continued to generate reaction, particularly on the social media.

Atiku in his own reaction, tweeted: “I sincerely sympathise with President Bola Tinubu, @officialABAT, over this unfortunate incident as he was set to review the parade on Democracy Day. I do hope that all is well with him. -AA.”
