Tinubu slips, falls during reception parade in Türkiye (Video)
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Tuesday briefly stumbled during a ceremonial march-past held to welcome him at the parade ground in Türkiye.
The moment happened as the President stepped forward to join the guard of honour, drawing brief attention from those present. The programme, however, continued smoothly without any disruption.
President Tinubu is in Türkiye to strengthen the long-standing friendly ties between Nigeria and Türkiye. The visit is also aimed at exploring new areas of cooperation that will help deepen a mutually beneficial partnership between the two countries.
During the visit, the President is scheduled to hold bilateral talks with his Turkish counterpart, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, on issues of trade, security, investment and regional cooperation.
The programme will also feature the signing of several memoranda of understanding between the two nations, alongside other high-level official engagements.
A business forum is expected to hold on the sidelines of the visit to connect Nigerian and Turkish investors and unlock opportunities for mutual economic growth.
Senior Nigerian officials who received the President at his hotel include the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi, SAN; the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun; the Minister of Solid Minerals Development, Dele Alake; and the Minister of Defence, General Christopher Musa (rtd).
