The two leaders were seen in a dapper attire, with Tinubu in a tailored blue suit and Macron in a dark navy suit. At the dining table, they appeared relaxed, seated opposite each other with fine glassware and a floral centerpiece.
The President was accompanied by France’s First Lady, Brigitte Macron, and pictures showed the trio together. As Tinubu left, the two presidents shared a warm embrace.

Tinubu thanked Macron for his hospitality and friendship.
