Tinubu Returns to Nigeria, Dismisses Health Rumors
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu returned to Nigeria on September 29 after a three-week working vacation in Europe, which began on August 30. Upon his arrival in Lagos from Paris, he addressed journalists, dismissing speculation about his health and asserting he is "healthy, sound, and ready to go." Tinubu stated, “Ready to kick, ready to walk.
There’s nothing wrong," emphasizing that rumors about his health are politically motivated. His extended stay abroad led to public discussion and political debate, with opposition voices questioning the circumstances of his vacation.
The African Action Congress initiated legal proceedings against Tinubu and the National Assembly, alleging that he did not notify the legislature before leaving the country. Following his return, Tinubu is expected to resume official engagements, including activities related to the upcoming October 1 Independence anniversary.
