Tinubu Cuts Short Two-Week Europe Vacation After Public Outrage, Returns To Abuja Tuesday

Bola Tinubu will cut short his two-week work vacation and is expected to return to Abuja on Tuesday, a statement on Monday by his spokesman, Bayo Onanuga said.

The statement read, “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has concluded his work vacation ahead of schedule and will return to Abuja on Tuesday, September 16, 2025, to resume official duties.

“The President departed for France on September 4, 2025, to spend part of his annual holiday and was initially scheduled to divide the period between France and the United Kingdom.

“Last week in Paris, President Tinubu held a private luncheon with his French counterpart, President Emmanuel Macron, at the Élysée Palace. Both leaders reviewed key areas of cooperation between Nigeria and France and agreed to deepen the partnership for mutual prosperity and global stability.”

The president had been widely criticized for abandoning his country in turmoil for a vacation abroad.

Tinubu on September 4, 2025, embarked on a 10-day “working vacation” to France and the UK, which his handlers described as part of his annual leave.
