Tinubu to Travel to France on Two-Week Working Visit

Nigerian President Bola Tinubu is embarking on a brief work trip to Paris, France, today, April 2, 2025.

The primary purpose of his visit is to evaluate his administration’s performance at the halfway mark and to analyse significant achievements.

He will also utilise the time in Paris to assess the current state of ongoing reforms and develop strategic plans leading up to the second year of his presidency. This period of reflection is designed to inform future strategies, to strengthen existing reforms, and to speed up national development priorities in the coming year.

The visit coincides with positive economic developments, as the Central Bank of Nigeria has reported a notable rise in net foreign exchange reserves, now standing at $23.11 billion, up from $3.99 billion in 2023. This increase is seen as a direct result of the administration’s financial reforms.

President Tinubu will maintain close communication with his team and continue to manage government operations while abroad.

He is expected to return to Nigeria in approximately two weeks.
