PRESIDENT Bola Tinubu returned to Abuja on Tuesday after attending the 28th United Nations Climate Change Conference in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Apart from attending the conference, the President met with King Charles of England, the President of the United Arab Emirates, and leaders of other countries and multilateral partners to finalize engagements.
On the margins of the COP28 climate summit, President Tinubu also witnessed the signing of an accelerated performance agreement between Nigeria and Germany to improve Nigeria’s electricity supply and hosted a high-level meeting with stakeholders and investors on the Nigeria Carbon Market and the Electric Buses Rollout Programme.
Tinubu left Abuja for Dubai on November 29, 2023, in preparation for the summit, which was scheduled to conclude on December 12, 2023.
The Tinubu-led government was under fire for registering 1,411 Nigerian delegates at the summit, a figure considered as bloated by many critics, though the government said it only funded 422 persons to the summit.
