• Gifts president Los Blancos No.4 jersey
President of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, was spotted with Real Madrid star David Alaba, widely regarded as one of the finest defenders in the world during his recent visit to Paris, France.
The former governor of Lagos state held his first presidential diaspora engagement in Paris, France, in a significant development showcasing his international engagement.
The event was attended by a vibrant gathering of Nigerians residing in France, which also included the Los Blancos defender.
The engagement provided a platform for meaningful discussions where attendees could share their experiences, concerns, and aspirations.
Alaba’s presence added an extra dimension of excitement to the event, capturing football enthusiasts and political observers’ attention.
Pictures capturing the memorable moments of the occasion were shared on Twitter by Nigerian journalist KC, further amplifying the significance of the event.
Alaba gifted Tinubu a Real Madrid jersey and posed for pictures with the Nigerian entourage in France shortly after a closed door meeting with the president.
After losing the La Liga title to Barcelona and the UEFA Champions League crown to Manchester City, Carlo Ancelotti’s team did not have a regular season. However, with Alaba on board, they hope to rebound with a great campaign next year.
He has expressed interest in reconnecting with his Nigerian roots through several efforts in development.
