Tinubu departed for the two-week working vacation on Wednesday, October 2 as part of his annual leave, according to a statement by his special adviser on information and strategy, Bayo Onanuga.

On October 11, Tinubu left the UK for Paris, France for an “important engagement,” according to his senior special assistant on political and other matters, Ibrahim Masari.
