President Bola Tinubu on Thursday, at the Aso Rock Villa, received the Edo State Governor-elect with a delegation led by the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje.
The delegation was at the Villa to formally present Monday Okpebholo, the yet-to-be sworn in Governor to the President.
The delegation also included the Deputy Governor-elect, Dennis Idahosa, the incumbent Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu, Edo North Senator, Adams Oshiomhole and a host of other APC Governors and party stalwarts.
A mild drama, however, played out during the visit as some members of the delegation, including Okpebholo, Idahosa and Shaibu, were seen kneeling down as they greeted President Tinubu.

@jethroE44: Shameless goat . Bowing for a man that is not your God or even older than you in the name of president. How many times have ever seen a nineteen years old bowing for loel Biden?β¦ Foolish old ozour
@DipoSpeak: Why are people still kneeling in this modern age in a government house where the people occupying the office were elected by the populace to serve everyone .
I understand the they want to show respect and some can argue bowing is also showing too much respect but if that can fly
@Bhooks_man: Igbo man no de kneel π
@Fabulous60A: Why are they kneeling down for Mr president?

@QueenzTonez: Itβs embarrassing watching this
@triplerolex: Tinubu loved to be worshiped as god reason why his team briefed these men to kneel down and worship him
