President Bola Tinubu will depart Abuja on Tuesday, April 2, 2024, for Dakar, Senegal, to attend the inauguration of Senegal's President-elect, Bassirou Diomaye Faye.
The President’s trip is on the invitation of the Republic of Senegal.
President Tinubu, who is the Chairman of ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government, will join other regional leaders to witness the inauguration at Diamniadio Exhibition Centre on Tuesday.
The President will be accompanied on the trip by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Yusuf Maitama Tuggar, and other senior government officials.
The President is expected to return to Nigeria after the conclusion of the inauguration.
Pres. B. Tinubu should be the last President of Nigeria in that age category. After his tenure, a younger person with vast knowledge and leadership experience should be given a chance to governm Nigeria. One who's digitally savvy.
ReplyDeleteMacron was just 38 when he became France President. The Senegalese President about to be inaugurated is just 44 and from an opposition party too. This is an indication of fair politics played over there. I think I like that age frame and bracket.
Those who have been in the corridors of power for so long should give new and younger breed chance to take over. Let's see if there'll be a great difference.

Teejay,
DeleteIt's this mentality right here that you display even in what you share of your personal life.....
Nothing is "given".
"Work" for it.
"Position" yourself.
Make meaningful "collaborations".
"Build" relationships.
"Develop" yourself.
Be "intentional "
Strive for "consistency"
PRAY.
Safe journey Mr President
ReplyDeleteAge got nothing to do with good governance. You can be 40 and messed up any country if you are a bad leader. Good governance is even more than policy if you don't have institutional structures. What makes western leader not to completely messed up their country is because they solid institutional structures that are difficult to corrupt. In Nigeria all the institutions we have at the minute are very corrupt which make easy for bad leaders to messed us up and will even make it difficult for good ones to perform. Fingers crossed let's see the way the young guy in Senegal will perform as begun his government. Good luck to him.
ReplyDeleteLeave Teejay.
DeleteOne of the worst governors ever seen was the guy that just finished from Kogi and he was one of the youngest.
Winston Churchill was how old again Teejay? Margaret Thatcher? OBJ?
The UK hasn't recovered from the policies of the "younger" ones.
When HC and DT went together they were both how old?
Though we have had really great young guys that governed in States, it had nothing to do with their ages.
Good one at Senegal. I wish him the Very best. But Nigeria is not a soft beef to govern.
