Goodluck Jonathan Declines Tinubu's Offer, Opts for Ivorian Aircraft Amid Guinea-Bissau Crisis

Goodluck Jonathan rejected help from Bola Tinubu to leave Guinea-Bissau, choosing an Ivorian aircraft due to existing relationships between Francophone and Lusophone countries. Jonathan's decision came amidst political turmoil in Guinea-Bissau, with the military taking over power.
