Former Minister of Sports, Solomon Dalung, has criticised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s departure to Europe for a working vacation.


Dalung described Tinubu as a “vacation president” produced by the Independent National Electoral Commission’s, INEC, “technical glitches.”

DAILY POST reported that the Presidency had announced that Tinubu departed Abuja on September 4 to begin a 10-day working vacation in Europe as part of his 2025 annual leave.


According to a statement signed by Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Tinubu will spend the period between France and the United Kingdom before returning to Nigeria.

In a post on X on Thursday, Dalung said the outcome of the 2023 elections had left the country with a leader who prioritises leisure while Nigerians face worsening insecurity.

“This is the tragic outcome of INEC’s so-called technical glitches — a conspiracy that has produced a vacation president whose idea of a social contract with Nigerians is sheer entitlement.


“At a time of escalating insecurity, Tinubu chooses leisure in Europe while the nation drifts. Nigeria is on autopilot, navigating turbulence with clueless, sleeping pilots. Lord, have mercy on this country,” he wrote

A snatch, grab and run away with someone's mandate crooner is a bad president.

Honestly speaking. This is becoming so unbecoming. Tinubu just came back from Brazil and Colombia, now he has ran away to Europe.

Is that the reason he is Nigeria's most vacationing president?

A president that likes France and United Kingdom more than his country .

He has spent more time in France and UK than he has spent in Abuja

What is the meaning of government and how does it operate?

Tinubu is not competent, ask yourself why people like Aregbesola, Momodu and Co don't support him.

If the government is running well without him, why are we paying him to lead it? Why is he still in office? We might as well make vacation the official job description.

It's safe to say we have a visiting president...

You need to make up your mind, are Ndi Yorùbá tribalists and Ndi North Ndigbo haters for voting President Tinubu to defeat Peter Obi or did they both vote Peter Obi whose mandate was then stolen, bikonu which is it?

You can't have it both ways, it's not right.

No thanks to failed systems, institutions and processes in a failed country. So sad and terrible for a nation
