President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has left the United Kingdom for Paris, France, where he is set to attend an “important engagement” after spending over a week in the UK.
Ibrahim Kabir Masari, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Political and other matters, shared this information on Friday via his X account.
“I had the privilege of visiting President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR at his private residence in the UK, where we had fruitful discussions. We then traveled to Paris for another significant engagement,” Masari stated.
However, details about this upcoming engagement have not been disclosed.
Agenda Newspapers notes that President Tinubu left Nigeria on Wednesday, October 2, for a two-week working vacation in the UK as part of his annual leave, despite the widespread economic difficulties facing Nigerians.
The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited recently raised the price of Premium Motor Spirit (petrol) to N1,030 per litre, exacerbating the challenges for citizens.
