Tinubu travelled to UK because of cabinet reshuffle – Okupe

A former Presidential spokesperson, Doyin Okupe, has claimed that President Bola Tinubu travelled to the UK, so he could have time to himself for a review of his administration so far.

Okupe, speaking with NAN, hit out at Nigerians criticising Tinubu’s trip to the United Kingdom for a two-week holiday.

According to him, the president wants to avoid “undue interference from political associates”, as he seeks to rejig his cabinet.

Okupe said: “I have read many uninformed criticisms of the President’s holiday trip abroad.

“Personally, from my understanding of how Presidents behave in periods of national crisis, I believe the President has willfully separated himself from officials, friends and associates to reflect and review the last 17 months and chart a new way forward for his administration.
