During the 37th Ordinary Session of the African Union (AU) Assembly held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, a photograph surfaced capturing Nigeria’s President Bola Tinubu apparently dozing off.
The image, shared by AFP on Saturday, February 17, 2024, depicted Tinubu amidst dozens of African leaders attending the summit at the AU headquarters.
The photograph, taken by AFP photographer Michele Spatari, drew attention to Tinubu’s presence at the high-profile event, where key discussions on continental issues were underway.
Tinubu’s moment of rest amidst the proceedings raised eyebrows and sparked discussions about the demands of leadership and the physical toll of such engagements.
