A video capturing the joyful moment of a woman enthusiastically shaking hands with President Bola Tinubu as he was leaving the United Nations (UN) headquarters in New York, USA has sparked a reaction on social media.
After delivering his address to the world leaders at the 78th Session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA), President Tinubu had an encounter with a Nigerian woman who shook his hand as he was departing the UN building along with his entourage.
The Nigerian leader was evidently delighted by the woman’s excitement upon spotting him. In response to her outstretched hand, he extended his own hand for a handshake, surprising her in the process.
