Tinubu rattled social media users when he threw up his hands during the recitation of the national anthem.
The APC flagbearer was seen holding up the staff with two hands as soon as the announcer instructed everyone to stand up for the national item.
While others in his entourage, including the APC vice-presidential candidate, Kashim Shettima and Oshiomhole stood attentively for the anthem as norm requires, it was only Tinubu that unconsciously acted otherwise.
Noticing the massive blunder by Mr Tinubu, Mr Oshiomhole had to intervene by tapping him to return Tinubu back to consciousness and subsequently turn his hands downward.
