Tinubu Travels To France For ‘Private Visit’ Ahead AU Summit In Ethiopia

President Bola Tinubu will leave Abuja on Wednesday for a private visit to Paris, France, before continuing his journey to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

During his time in France, President Tinubu is scheduled to meet with French President Emmanuel Macron.

Bayo Onanuga, the President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, shared the news in a statement titled, “President Tinubu departs for France ahead of the AU summit in Addis Ababa.”

“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will depart Abuja on Wednesday for Paris, France, on a private visit en route to Addis Ababa, the Ethiopian capital.”

“In Addis Ababa, President Tinubu will join African leaders at the 46th Ordinary Session of the Executive Council and the 38th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of the AU Heads of State, scheduled from February 12th to 16th, 2025.”

“The president will arrive in Addis Ababa early next week for the African Union summit. While in France, President Tinubu will meet with his French counterpart, President Emmanuel Macron,” the statement reads.

KanyiDaily recalls that President Bola Tinubu recently asked the Federal High Court in Abuja to throw out a lawsuit seeking to force the National Assembly to begin impeachment proceedings against him over alleged human rights violations.
