President Bola Tinubu has accepted an invitation to participate in the commemoration of Guinea-Bissau’s 50th Independence Anniversary and Armed Forces Day. Scheduled for Thursday, the ceremony in Bissau will bring together various Heads of State and Government, with President Tinubu arriving to join the festivities hosted by President Umaro Sissoco Embalo.
Although Guinea-Bissau officially marked its Independence Anniversary on September 24, 2023, all celebratory events were rescheduled to November 16, 2023.
President Tinubu is expected to return to Nigeria on the same day after participating in the landmark occasion.
