April 14, (THEWILL) – Nigeria’s President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is currently taking a rest in Europe, ahead of his inauguration on May 29, his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), said on Thursday.
National Publicity Secretary of the Party, Felix Morka, who made the disclosure during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme, said Tinubu is doing well and will swing into action immediately after his return from Europe.
“He is probably in Europe. He’s fine. After the elections and all of the energy expended, he just decided to take a moment of rest.
“Once he returns and is inaugurated on May 29, there will be no dulling. He’ll be saddled with the responsibility of running a country as massive and complex as Nigeria. I know he’ll be back in the country very shortly”, he said.
Morka said Tinubu’s rest is a working rest, as he is using this opportunity to reach out to heads of government and other levels of leadership of other countries that are vital to the agenda he is bringing in his new government.
“So, he’s not sleeping in his bed; he’s also in meetings regularly with all kinds of people who are travelling from other countries to see him preparatory to his inauguration. So, it’s a working visit”, he added.
