A former Presidential spokesperson, Dr Doyin Okupe, says Nigerians criticising President Bola Tinubu’s trip to the United Kingdom for a two-week holiday are uninformed.
Okupe expressed the view in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria(NAN) on Thursday in Lagos.
He spoke against the backdrop of criticisms of the President travelling abroad for vacation instead of staying in the country.
He expressed the belief that the President’s return after “this retreat” would signal good tidings for the people of Nigeria and bring about the much-needed comfort and succour for our teeming masses.
NAN recalls that Tinubu departed Abuja on Oct. 2 for the United Kingdom to begin a two-week vacation.
A statement by Mr Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President, Information and Strategy, said the President would use the two weeks as a working vacation and a retreat to reflect on his administration’s economic reforms.
