Tinubu Arrives Paris for Second Phase of European Vacation

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has arrived in Paris, France, as he continues his three-week annual vacation in Europe.

The President was received by Nigeria’s Ambassador to France, Ayodele Oke, following his arrival in the French capital on Sunday.

Tinubu began the holiday in London after departing Abuja on August 30. The Presidency had announced before his departure that the President would spend three weeks in Europe as part of his annual leave.

The move to Paris marks the second phase of his European vacation.

In the statement announcing the trip, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, said London would be Tinubu’s first destination and that he was expected to return to Nigeria after the working vacation.

The Presidency said his return would coincide with preparations for the January 2027 general election, as political activities intensify ahead of the polls.

Tinubu is seeking another term in office on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

No detailed public itinerary has been released for the President’s stay in Paris.

The President is expected to return to Nigeria after completing the three-week vacation, in line with the schedule earlier announced by the Presidency.
