President Tinubu Departs Nigeria To France ‘On Private Visit’

President Bola Tinubu has departed for France on a “private visit” the presidency said on Wednesday.

“President Bola Tinubu departs Abuja for Paris, France, on Wednesday, January 24, 2024, for a private visit. He will return to the country in the first week of February, 2024,” Ajuri Ngelale, Special Adviser to the President, said in a release obtained by SaharaReporters.

Only in November 2023, Tinubu, who seemed to have penchant for foreign trips like his predecessor, Muhammadu Buhari, was in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, to attend the UN climate summit.

Barely two weeks before that time, Tinubu had left the country for Berlin, Germany, which was less than two days after he returned from foreign trips to Saudi Arabia and Guinea Bissau where he spent at least seven days.

The junketing Nigerian leader left Nigerian on November 9, 2023, and had attended the Saudi-Africa Summit in Riyadh and proceeded to Guinea Bissau before arriving in Abuja two weeks later.

In the Germany trip, he attended the G-20 Compact with Africa (CwA) Conference in Germany – a conference which was hosted by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, and held on November 20, 2023.
