Media aide to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Paul Ibe, has raised concerns over what he described as a growing trend by the Presidency of not disclosing the return dates of President Bola Tinubu\u2019s foreign trips.<\/p>\n

Reacting in a post on X, Atiku\u2019s media aide Paul Ibe criticised the lack of clarity, suggesting it had become a recurring practice whenever the President travels abroad.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat is this new trend of not giving a date of the return of the President whenever he is travelling out?\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

In a sarcastic follow-up, he hinted that the omission might be intentional.<\/p>\n

\u201cIs it to see if a few days in France to lounge and drink pi\u00f1a colada with the French squad can be squeezed in?\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Abia Radio News recalls that President Tinubu <\/a>left Abuja on Sunday, January 26, 2026, for a state visit to the Republic of T\u00fcrkiye.<\/p>\n

In a statement issued on Sunday, the Presidency described the trip as a multi-day diplomatic engagement aimed at strengthening bilateral relations between Nigeria and T\u00fcrkiye across key sectors.<\/p>\n

However, the statement did not specify the exact duration of the visit, noting only that the President would return \u201cat the conclusion of the visit.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
