President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has departed Abuja, the nation’s capital for Paris, France, on a short working visit.
During the visit, in a press statement made available to Theliberationnews by the Presidential Spokesperson, Bayo Onanuga, the President will appraise his administration’s midterm performance and assess key achievements.
“Also, he will use the retreat to review the progress of ongoing reforms and engage in strategic planning ahead of his administration’s second anniversary.
“This period of reflection will inform plans to deepen ongoing reforms and accelerate national development priorities in the coming year.
“Recent economic strides reinforce the President’s commitment to these efforts, as evidenced by the Central Bank of Nigeria reporting a significant increase in net foreign exchange reserves to $23.11 billion—a testament to the administration’s fiscal reforms since 2023 when net reserves were $3.99 billion.
“While away, President Tinubu will remain fully engaged with his team and continue to oversee governance activities.
“He will return to Nigeria in about a fortnight,” the statement read.
