Daniel Bwala, a presidential adviser, has denied rumors that President Bola Tinubu is in France for medical treatment, stating that the president is there on a business trip.
In an appearance on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, Bwala addressed the escalating online rumors over Tinubu’s health.
“The president did not go to see a doctor; he’s on a working visit, and we have been publishing his activities,” Bwala said.
Charming Magazine recalls that on April 2, 2025, President Tinubu left Nigeria for Paris, France. The travel was for official business and had nothing to do with health, according to presidential spokesperson Bayo Onanuga.
To help support the idea that the trip was organized and legitimate, the Presidency published a video in which the president greeted high-ranking government officials prior to boarding the presidential plane.
