Melaye Questions Leadership Amid Tinubu and Shettima's Absence

Dino Melaye, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has publicly questioned the simultaneous absence of President Bola Tinubu and Vice-President Kashim Shettima from Nigeria. In a post on his verified 𝕏 handle on Monday, Melaye asked who is currently exercising presidential authority in the country.

President Tinubu is on an annual vacation that is scheduled to last three weeks, having first traveled to London, United Kingdom, before proceeding to Paris, France. The context of Melaye's inquiry raises concerns regarding governance and leadership during the absence of the country's top two officials.
