According to Morka, Tinubu will swiftly swing into action upon his return from Europe. When asked about Tinubu’s whereabouts, Morka stated, “He [Tinubu] is probably in Europe. He’s fine. After the elections and all of the energy expended, he just decided to take a moment of rest.”

Morka emphasized that Tinubu’s rest is not purely leisurely, as he has been utilizing the time to reach out to heads of government and other key leaders of other countries, in line with his new government’s agenda. Morka added, “He’s not sleeping in his bed; he’s also in meetings regularly with all kinds of people who are traveling from other countries to see him preparatory to his inauguration. So, it’s a working visit.”
