The Presidency has said President Bola Tinubu continues to direct the affairs of state from Europe, despite being outside the country for nearly two weeks.

It also said the President will return on Monday, April 21, after the Easter holidays.

In a statement signed Thursday, Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, explained that the President, who travelled from Paris to London at the weekend, “remains fully engaged in Nigeria’s governance” and is in “constant communication with key government officials.”

Onanuga added that the President had given “directives to security chiefs to address emerging threats in some parts of the country.”
