President Bola Tinubu is expected to return to Nigeria this week after spending several weeks abroad on what his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has described as a working vacation.

Onanuga, in a post on X, said the President was “hale and hearty” and had continued to work while away from Nigeria, arguing that Tinubu did not need to be physically present in Abuja to discharge his responsibilities as President.

He cited Tinubu’s meetings with investors in France, including what he described as the President’s recent role in facilitating a $7 billion deep-sea port in Ogun Waterside, an initiative of the Ogun State Government.

According to Onanuga, Tinubu will return to Nigeria this week to mark the country’s 66th Independence Anniversary and attend the Lagos premiere of a movie commemorating the late MKO Abiola, whom he described as “the martyr of the democracy we enjoy today.”
