KanyiDaily recalls that President Tinubu joined other world leaders to attend a summit on ‘A New Global Financing Pact’ organized by the President of France, Emmanuel Macron.
The president was initially scheduled to return today, but a statement issued on Saturday afternoon by Dele Alake, Tinubu’s special adviser on communications and strategy, clarified that he would be back in Nigeria in time for the Eid-el-Kabir festival.
Alake highlighted Tinubu’s exceptional participation in the summit, stating that he represented Nigeria admirably.
“Aside his participation at the event where he represented Nigeria well, President Tinubu also held high-profile sideline meetings with fellow heads of state and government, global business leaders and chief executives of leading multilateral and development finance institutions from around the world,” he said.
“The summit afforded the President the opportunity of projecting, on a global stage, his advocacy for widening the fiscal space, economic justice for Africa as the world accelerates the pace of energy transition, and the urgency of addressing the pressing issues of poverty and climate change.”
Meanwhile, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the Director General of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), has been criticized for not sharing a photo with President Bola Tinubu at the summit in Paris.
