Billionaire businessman Femi Otedola said on Tuesday that he remains proud of President Bola Tinubu following what he described as his “bold and forward-thinking reforms”.

Mr Otedola posted a photo of himself and Tinubu on Instagram, saying they had a private dinner in Paris, France, Monday night.

According to Otedola, President Tinubu’s reforms have put the Nigerian economy “firmly on a path of sustainable growth”.

He continued in his post, “The results are increasingly evident top Nigerian companies now included on the FTSE Russell Frontier 50 Index, the NGX at historic highs, increased foreign direct investment and renewed economic confidence, a unified and more stable foreign exchange market, foreign reserves standing strong at about $55 billion, and so much more.”

“I remain proud of you, Mr. President!” Otedola added.

Tinubu is expected back in Nigeria on Tuesday following a four-week leave that began on August 30 when he departed Abuja for London.

After spending about a week in London, the president travelled to Paris, where he held meetings with French President Emmanuel Macron and businessman Vincent Bolloré, whose business interests include Canal+, MultiChoice and Universal Music Group.

The president, according to his aides, will arrive in Lagos on Tuesday where he will mark Nigeria’s 66th Independence Anniversary on October 1 before returning to Abuja at the weekend.

Mr Ote Dollar, so you actually want us to believe that the growth of our foreign reserves is due to Tinubu's "genius" when we all know that it is the result of Nigeria earning significantly more income from oil since 2022 as a result of the compounding effects of the Russia-Ukraine war, the Hamas-Israel war and the blockade/ closure of the Hormuz Strait by the United States Navy?

We are cursed with self inflicted ignorance in this country.

Something smells fishy. First, Bayo Onanuga coming out unsolicited to tell us, "Tinubu is hale and hearty," and now, Otedola having dinner with Tinubu in France. What is conspicuous is that Otedola locked his comment section on Twitter. Meanwhile, the presidential aircraft was traced to Serbia. When is Tinubu coming back to Nigeria? His lackeys told us he will be back on Tuesday. Today is Tuesday. Bola, where are you? Blink twice if you can hear us.

When influential people tell you that they just had dinner with a public servant who had been missing for quite a while. Just know that something fishy is going on.
