He omitted to mention the visit’s purpose, though.
This occurs two days after the president of Nigeria arrived back in Abuja from Equatorial Guinea.
President Teodoro Mbasogo invited Tinubu to the country of Central Africa, and he accepted the invitation for a three-day official visit last Wednesday.
At 02:07 PM local time, the Gulfstream plane carrying Tinubu and his principal aides landed at Saint Isabel Airport, Malabo. There, he was greeted by Mrs. Manuela Roka Botey, the prime minister of Equatorial Guinea.
Tinubu and his counterpart from Equatorial Guinea had discussions and saw agreements signed when he was there, mainly related to security and oil and gas.
Yusuf Tuggar, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and other cabinet members signed agreements and looked over prospects to strengthen bilateral relationships.
