President Bola Tinubu has returned to Abuja following his official visits to France and South Africa.
The president arrived at the Presidential Wing of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, aboard an Airbus A330 at 9:10 PM.
During his visit to France from November 27 to December 1, 2024, Tinubu attended a three-day state visit at the invitation of French President Emmanuel Macron.
At the Palais des Élysée in Paris, the two leaders signed agreements to strengthen partnerships in critical infrastructure development and promote long-term agricultural and food security.

On December 2, Tinubu travelled to South Africa, where he and President Cyril Ramaphosa co-chaired the 11th Bi-National Commission between Nigeria and South Africa in Cape Town.
While in South Africa, Tinubu sought the country’s support for Nigeria’s bid to join the G20, an international forum for economic cooperation among the world’s leading advanced and emerging economies.
In response, Ramaphosa affirmed South Africa’s strong support, describing Nigeria as a “valued sister country” deserving of G20 membership.
