President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will return to Nigeria on Tuesday after a vacation in France and the United Kingdom.
This was contained in a statement issued by presidential spokesperson Bayo Onanuga on Monday.
The statement said the President would resume his official duties from Tuesday.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has concluded his work vacation ahead of schedule and will return to Abuja on Tuesday, September 16, 2025, to resume official duties.
“The President departed for France on September 4, 2025, to spend part of his annual holiday and was initially scheduled to divide the period between France and the United Kingdom.
“Last week in Paris, President Tinubu held a private luncheon with his French counterpart, President Emmanuel Macron, at the Élysée Palace. Both leaders reviewed key areas of cooperation between Nigeria and France and agreed to deepen the partnership for mutual prosperity and global stability,” the statement read.
Tinubu departed Nigeria for France and the UK on September 4, 2025.
The President’s frequent travels have attracted criticism from opposition leaders, including Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 election.
