Nigeria’s president-elect, Bola Tinubu, has travelled to Europe to seek medical care.

According to the Independent National Electoral Commission, Bola Tinubu fell sick on Saturday after the gubernatorial and state house of assembly elections.

Authoritative sources revealed on Wednesday that Tinubu left for Europe on Tuesday night.

“He was attended to by local doctors but he has left for Europe for proper medical care,” one of the sources close to him revealed.

“He initially said his doctors should be brought down to Nigeria and that when things die down he would leave. But I’ve confirmed that he left last night (Tuesday night) because he is ill,” another source confirmed.

“His plane Falcon 9X with registration number VP-CBT can’t be tracked by air flight tracking websites.”

Indeed, efforts made by a news agency to track the flight came back with: “VP-CBT – Unknown Owner (Cayman Islands (UK))

This aircraft (VP-CBT) is not available for public tracking per request from the owner/operator.”

Tinubu had shared photos of himself voting on his Instagram page.

“I just joined other Nigerians in exercising my civic duty in the ongoing governorship and state assembly elections. I encourage you all to go out and vote peacefully,” he had written.
