The Special Adviser on Media and Information Strategy to the President, Bayo Onanuga, confirmed the visit.

President Tinubu, in a nationwide broadcast on March 18, 2025 declared a state of emergency citing the need to restore law and order as the crisis between Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike festered.
