The presidential flagbearer of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, today left the country for France.
Tinubu departed Nigeria shortly after he held a closed-door meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa.
This was contained in a statement issued by Tinubu’s Spokesman, Tunde Rahman.
The development is coming in the wake of Tinubu’s statement that he was still searching for his running mate for the 2023 presidential election.
Although Rahman did not state how long the former Lagos State Governor would be away, there were insinuations that his travel must have something to do with the consultation for his running mate.
The development is coming in the wake of controversy over Tinubu’s claims that he lost his academic certificates in his submission to the Independent National Electoral Commission.
