President Tinubu Returns To Nigeria Today
Eko Hot Blog reports that President Bola Tinubu would return to Nigeria on Wednesday from his trip to Europe.
The Special Adviser on Information and strategy, Bayo Onanuga made this known in a statement via his X handle on Tuesday.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, along with his aides, will return to Nigeria tomorrow from Europe,” Onanuga stated.
Tinubu left Abuja on April 22 for the Kingdom of The Netherlands on an official visit.
Presidential spokesperson, Ajuri Ngelale said the President was visiting The Netherlands on the invitation of Prime Minister Mark Rutte.
Tinubu proceeded to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, to attend a special World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting between April 28 and 29, after the engagements in The Netherlands.
The President was expected back in the country after the forum in Saudi Arabia.
But Tinubu is yet to return from the trip to Europe, fuelling speculations about his whereabouts.
Atiku Abubakar, the former vice president, has earlier raised concerns over President Bola Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima’s absence from the presidential villa, the seat of power.

“I have been inundated by reports of the absence of the president and vice president from the country.
