Presidency releases video of Tinubu’s resumption after foreign trip

President Bola Tinubu has resumed work at the presidential villa in Abuja, a day after returning from his foreign trip.

 

Tinubu returned to Nigeria on Wednesday after trips to The Netherlands and Saudi Arabia.

 

On April 22, Tinubu departed Abuja, the nation’s capital, for The Netherlands on an official visit.

 

Ajuri Ngelale, presidential spokesperson, said Tinubu was visiting The Netherlands at the invitation of Prime Minister Mark Rutte.

 

After the engagements in The Netherlands, Tinubu proceeded to Riyadh in Saudi Arabia to attend a special World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting between April 28 and 29.

 

On Thursday, the presidency released a 28-second video clip of Tinubu walking from his residence to the office, in a move to quell growing speculations regarding his health and recent activities.
