President Bola Tinubu is scheduled to address the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York on September 24. Tinubu is listed as the 17th speaker on the second day of the general debate, following leaders like Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Donald Trump.

The theme of the session is "Better Together: 80 Years of Peace, Development, and Human Rights." If Tinubu is unable to attend, Kashim Shettima will represent him. This opportunity to address the UN General Assembly is seen as a rare diplomatic privilege for Tinubu, highlighting Nigeria's presence on the global stage.
