What Is Keeping Tinubu In Paris? Paul Ibe Queries Prolonged Absence

Paul Ibe, the media aide to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has raised concerns over the prolonged stay of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in Paris, France, questioning the nature of his extended working vacation.

Ibe, who has been a vocal critic of the current administration, took to social media to express his dissatisfaction with the President’s continued absence from the country, especially at a time when Nigeria is grappling with significant socio-economic challenges.

What is keeping the President in Paris? Is it still a working vacation, or has it evolved into something else? Nigerians deserve to know why their leader is away for this long while the country faces critical issues that require his direct attention.

The aide noted that while the President is entitled to leave, the duration and timing of his stay in France have become a subject of public discourse, with many citizens questioning the impact of his absence on governance.

Ibe further argued that the President’s absence from key international engagements and his continued stay in Europe sends a wrong signal to the international community about the state of affairs in Nigeria.

He called on the Presidency to provide a clear and transparent explanation regarding the President’s activities in Paris and when he is expected to return to resume his official duties in Abuja.

The Presidency has yet to respond to the latest queries from Ibe, but the issue continues to generate debate among political observers and the general public.
