The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP and the Labour Party, on Wednesday, demanded an explanation as President Bola Tinubu departed Abuja for France on what the Presidency described as a private visit.
The PDP Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Ibrahim Abdullahi, stated that the insecurity and the state of the nation’s economy made it the worst time for Tinubu to embark on a foreign trip.
This was as the spokesman for the LP 2023 Presidential Campaign Council, Yunusa Tanko, alleged that there was a hidden agenda for the trip and mentioned that the President was sick.
President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday departed Abuja for Paris, France, for a private visit.
The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, revealed this in a statement titled ‘President Tinubu travels to France.’

Wednesday’s visit was Tinubu’s third to France since he assumed office eight months ago.
Reacting, the PDP scribe, Abdullahi, challenged the Presidency to come clean regarding the President’s travel to France alleging that he had an undisclosedmedical condition.
The LP spokesman, Tanko, described President Tinubu’s travel as unacceptable and also questioned his state of health
