President Bola Tinubu has made the decision to forgo attending the 79th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, prioritizing instead the pressing domestic issues facing Nigeria.

His choice comes in light of the recent catastrophic flooding that has severely impacted various regions across the country.

In a statement released on Thursday by his media adviser, Bayo Onanuga, it was announced that Vice President Kashim Shettima will lead Nigeria’s delegation at the assembly in Tinubu’s absence.

This decision reflects the president’s commitment to addressing urgent national challenges and ensuring that effective measures are taken to assist those affected by the flooding.

The president’s focus on domestic affairs highlights the critical need for leadership and action in the face of natural disasters, as well as the importance of providing support to affected communities.
