President Bola Tinubu has received in audience the President of Madagascar, Colonel Michael Randrianirina.
Randrianirina met with Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on Monday during his visit to Nigeria.
The Army colonel was sworn in as Madagascar’s president in October 2025, just days after a military power grab that sent former president Andry Rajoelina fleeing.
