Bola Tinubu’s was cause for argument yesterday, as his Wikipedia page keeps changing to reflect conflicting age of the APC national leader.
Yesterday was his birthday and many dignitaries took to social media to celebrate him.
Among the numerous congratulatory messages, Lagos state Governor Sanwo-Olu wrote;
Hearty congratulations to our great leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on the joyous occasion of his 69th birthday.
Asiwaju is a statesman and builder whose contribution to a progressive and democratic Nigeria cannot be quantified.
Nigerian president Buhari, also wished the APC leader a happy birthday in writing;
Happy 69th Birthday to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. I pray for the best of health, happiness, strength and wisdom for one of the great pillars of our party, the All Progressives Congress (APC); and a sincere and passionate advocate for unity and cohesion in Nigeria.
It is a mark of true statesmanship that his birthday should be hosted in Kano and celebrated in this way, with a Colloquium that is a fitting reflection of the service that Asiwaju has given, to Lagos, Nigeria and Africa—and with friends & associates joining in from far and wide.
Happy 69th Birthday to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. I pray for the best of health, happiness, strength and wisdom for one of the great pillars of our party, the All Progressives Congress (APC); and a sincere and passionate advocate for unity and cohesion in Nigeria.

Confused social media users though were quick to point out that his age was reflecting, 79 on his Wikipedia page.
Surprisingly as others went to verify, his age was back to 69. The back and forth kept on happening for some time.
See the Wikipedia changes to the age of Bola Tinubu for just yesterday only.
