While in Paris, he combined rest with diplomatic engagements, including a private luncheon with French President Emmanuel Macron at the Élysée Palace.
The two leaders reviewed key areas of cooperation between Nigeria and France and reaffirmed their commitment to deepen strategic partnerships in security, trade, and global stability.
During his days away, the President also remained actively engaged with national issues, giving firm directives on matters of food security and affordability, and communicating symbolic messages through his aides to Nigerians across different walks of life.
He also commended and consoled eminent citizens, reflecting his continued presence in the national space despite being physically out of the country.
