President Bola Tinubu has returned to Abuja after two-week trips to The Netherlands and Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n

Tinubu, who left Nigeria on April 23, returned to the Presidential Villa in Abuja in the early hours of Wednesday, May 8, 2024.<\/p>\n

His return was confirmed by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.<\/p>\n

Onanuga, in a post on his X account on Wednesday, wrote: \u201cWelcome Home Mr President!\u201d<\/p>\n

The presidential spokesman had, in a tweet on Tuesday evening, disclosed that Tinubu will return to Nigeria on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Bola Ahmed Tinubu, along with his aides, will return to Nigeria tomorrow from Europe,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

It would be recalled that President Tinubu departed Abuja for The Netherlands on an official visit on April 23.<\/p>\n

Presidential spokesman Ajuri Ngelale said the president was visiting the country at the invitation of Prime Minister Mark Rutte.<\/p>\n

After the engagements in The Netherlands, Tinubu proceeded to Riyadh in Saudi Arabia to attend a special World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting between April 28 and 29.<\/p>\n

At the meeting, Tinubu called for collaboration and inclusiveness to end global challenges.<\/p>\n

The president said collaboration and inclusiveness, especially with regard to Africa, are elemental to building a future of hope, peace, and progress for all.<\/p>\n

He also said he removed fuel subsidy to prevent Nigeria from going bankrupt and to reset the economy.<\/p>\n

Tinubu described the fuel subsidy removal as necessary for Nigeria, saying he had to make tough but essential decisions like the removal and managing the nation\u2019s currency, effectively removing corruption-laden arbitrage.<\/p>\n
