President Bola Tinubu Arrives India For G-20 Summit

POSTED ON September 5, 2023 •   World      BY Ugwuagwu John

President Bola Tinubu is attending the G20 Summit in New Delhi, India, following a special invitation from Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The G20 Summit is focused on the theme 'One Earth-One Family-One Future,' which emphasizes global unity and cooperation to address the challenges facing humanity and the planet. Just before the president's departure, there was a warning strike by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) concerning palliatives to mitigate the impact of the removal of petrol subsidy. While the president is away, the Presidential Election Petition Court will deliver judgments on petitions filed by Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP), and other presidential candidates challenging the victory of Tinubu, who represented the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the February 25, 2023, presidential election. The Nigerian government is considering the benefits and risks of joining the G20. https://twitter.com/DOlusegun/status/1699064733012521399 Once consultations are completed, a decision will be made regarding Nigeria's potential membership. The president's participation in the G20 Summit is seen as a step toward this objective, Punch reports. Tinubu was accompanied to the G20 Summit by key ministers, including the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Minister of Communications, Innovation, and Digital Economy, and Minister of Industry, Trade, and Investment.
