Former presidential spokesman, Laolu Akande, said it is not ideal for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima to leave governance for foreign trips simultaneously.
Akande spoke on Channels Televisionâs Sunrise Daily programme on Thursday, October 17.
Recall President Tinubu left Abuja, Nigeria, on Wednesday, October 2, for a two-week working vacation.
In the same vein, on Wednesday, October 16, the vice president departed the country for Sweden on an official visit.
In a statement, presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga Onanuga said Tinubu, aged 72, has been busy answering phones and issuing directives on matters of state.
However, Akande said:
In a related development, TimesNow.com.ng reported that Ibrahim Kabir Masari, the senior special assistant to President Tinubu on political and other matters, shed light on the Nigerian leader’s health in France.
Speaking in a new interview with DCL Hausa, Masari said contrary to what some government critics are insinuating, his principal is not battling any severe health challenge and is in a fine state of mind.
