Another Nigerian, Akin Oyebode said it has been a great week for Tinubu but he is more interested in the foreign exchange liquidity programme.

"Forget UAE lifting the travel ban, and the return of Emirati airlines, that’s not the story. I’m only interested in the foreign exchange liquidity programme. A great week for PBAT."

Sola A said President Tinubu would not have achieved the lifting of the ban if he had sent a minister to the UAE.

"Jagaban personally getting things done. Omo! UAE visa ban lifted. Sending a minister wouldn’t have produced any tangible result"
