Why Tinubu left Abuja for three-week Europe vacation — Presidency

The Presidency has said that President Bola Tinubu embarked on a three-week vacation to ‘refuel’ after months of intense engagement with state matters.

Special Adviser to the President on Media and Public Communications, Sunday Dare, stated this while addressing newsmen on Sunday.

According to him, the President had spent the past six to seven months handling state matters, including decisions on security and the economy, ahead of the campaign season for the 2027 elections.

“The President has had several months—six, seven months—of being engaged with state matters. We’ve seen monumental changes, monumental decisions taken with our security, with our economy and so many other things as pertains to the running of the affairs of this country,” he said.

“And at this point, the campaign season has just started. We have four, five months of serious campaigning. Of course, governance will still continue,” Dare said.

Dare noted that the leave was important for the President to rest and prepare for the campaign season, adding that Tinubu would remain engaged with government affairs while abroad.
