‘I Enjoyed Myself, Ready To Kick’, Tinubu Says After Returning From Europe Vacation
President Bola Tinubu returned to Lagos on Tuesday, landing at Murtala Muhammed International Airport at 6:22 p.m. after concluding his four-week European working vacation.
Tinubu departed Nigeria on August 30 for London and Paris, where the Presidency described the trip as a 'working vacation' and maintained he remained engaged with government business.
While in France, Tinubu met Vincent Bollor of the Bollor Group and Chairman Femi Otedola of First HoldCo Plc, witnessing a $7 billion Memorandum of Understanding for the Gateway Deep Sea Port.
Addressing health concerns, Tinubu stated he remains 'healthy, sound, and ready to go,' though opposition figure Atiku Abubakar criticized his absence from the 81st United Nations General Assembly.
Before returning to Abuja, the President will hold strategic meetings in Lagos and participate in Nigeria's 66th Independence Anniversary on October 1 at the Wole Soyinka National Theatre.
