President Tinubu to Return to Nigeria After Vacation

President Bola Tinubu is set to return to Nigeria on Sunday after a three-week working vacation that began on August 30, when he traveled to London. Following a week in the United Kingdom, he moved to Paris, France.

On September 21, the presidency announced an extension of his stay abroad by a few days. Tinubu's absence has led to political outrage and a constitutional debate regarding the implications of the president being outside the country for over 21 days without officially transferring powers to Vice-President Kashim Shettima.

The presidency stated that Tinubu remained in contact with officials in Nigeria and continued to oversee government affairs during his time abroad. Sources indicated that upon his return, Tinubu would spend up to a week in Lagos before heading to Abuja.
