[VIDEO] Tinubu Arrives Paris for Second Leg of European Holiday

President Bola Tinubu has arrived in Paris, France, for the second leg of his three-week annual leave in Europe. He was received by Nigeria’s Ambassador to France, Ayodele Oke.

Tinubu departed Abuja on August 30, 2026, with London as his first stop. According to officials, he is expected to return to Abuja after the vacation to join the campaign for the January 2027 general election. Since assuming office in May 2023, Tinubu has visited Paris at least 13 times and logged over 270 days abroad, visiting at least 30 countries on 51 trips.

Key Points:

Tinubu’s frequent foreign trips may fuel criticism over governance and accountability.
His return timing positions him to lead APC’s 2027 campaign.
Paris remains his most visited destination, raising questions about priorities.
Over 270 days abroad since 2023 may affect public perception of commitment.
Campaign season shifts focus from governance to political mobilisation.

Tinubu’s vacation continues ahead of a critical election year. Nigerians should watch for his return and how his travel record shapes campaign narratives.
