Tinubu travels out again, to return for inauguration 

President-elect, Bola Tinubu, on Wednesday left Nigeria for Europe on a business trip.

He is said to have travelled out with some of his key aides to perfect his transition programmes and policy options without undue pressure and interference.

This is coming about two weeks after he returned to the country from a trip to London, Saudi Arabia and Paris.

A statement from the office of the president-elect and signed by his spokesman, Tunde Rahman, said, “He will use the opportunity of the trip to finetune the transition plans and programmes, and his policy options with some of his key aides without unnecessary pressures and distractions.

“During the visit, the president-elect will engage with investors and other key allies with the goal of marketing investment opportunities in the country and his administration’s readiness to enable a business-friendly climate through policies and regulations.”

The statement said meetings with multi-sectoral actors in Europe’s business community including manufacturing, agriculture, tech and energy had been lined up.
It added, “Asíwájú Tinubu hopes to convince them of Nigeria’s readiness to do business under his leadership through mutually-beneficial partnerships premised on jobs creation and skills acquisition.
“Reviving the country’s economy forms a major plank of Tinubu’s Renewed hope agenda and the meeting is part of his efforts to re-establish Nigeria’s importance in the global economic chain and create empowering opportunities for the country’s huge youth population.”
