Nigeria’s President Bola Tinubu was treated to a music feast by his French host, Emmanuel Macron.
Tinubu, who began a three-day working visit to France on Thursday, was treated to evening vibes featuring a musical performance by a French band. The highlight of the night was the performance of P-Square’s ‘Taste the Money’.
Despite their French accent, the band was able to do justice to the song to the delight of the guests which included Tinubu, Macron, Nigerian and French delegations.
