Daniel Bwala, ex-aide to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has said that President Bola Tinubu chose not to attend the United Nations General Assembly session because he wants to address the tough challenges confronting the country.

Newspot reported that Tinubu will not be attending the 79th session of the UN in New York.

Instead, Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser, Information and Strategy to Tinubu, in a statement, said Vice President Kashim Shettima would lead Nigeria’s delegation to UNGA.

According to Onanuga, Tinubu wants to focus on domestic issues.

Echoing the same line of thought, Bwala in a post on his X handle on Thursday, said Tinubu will lead Nigerians through reform to place the country on a genuine path to prosperity.
