Onanuga: Tinubu-Mahama Meeting Was a Private Visit

Ghana’s President John Dramani Mahama visited Abuja on Thursday for private reasons, according to Bayo Onanuga, President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy.
As previously reported by Naija News, President Tinubu received Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama at his official residence in the State House in Abuja as part of a courtesy call.
For the first time since his inauguration on January 7, 2025, Mahama is traveling to see his Nigerian counterpart. He arrived at roughly 2:30 pm.

In an account post on 𝕏, Onanuga discussed the meeting between the two leaders and stated that the Ghanaian president was on a private visit.
At the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Thursday, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu met with Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama. On a private visit, Mahama arrived,” he wrote.

President Bola Tinubu, meantime, will celebrate his 73rd birthday on Saturday by joining Muslims at the National Mosque in Abuja for a national prayer session on Friday.

The President will reportedly also take this opportunity to express gratitude to God for protecting and assisting him in the difficult duty of leading the country’s affairs.

President Tinubu’s birthday falls two months ahead of the second anniversary of his government and falls during the holy month of Ramadan.

The President will devote himself to spiritual contemplation and prayer for Nigeria’s ongoing peace, development, and prosperity on this momentous day.

President Tinubu’s choice of prayer session demonstrates his devotion to seeking heavenly wisdom, leadership strength, and guidance as well as his concern for Nigeria’s moral and spiritual well-being. Collective prayer, in his opinion, is a potent instrument for directing the country toward development and peace.
