French President Emmanuel Macron has postponed his planned visit to Nigeria and Senegal, which had been scheduled for October 28–31.
The postponement was confirmed by a French presidential source and reported by French media and Nigerian news organisations on Friday.
The trip was intended to advance diplomatic and cooperation objectives.
French reporting said the visit would be rescheduled, although no replacement dates were announced in the sources reviewed.
The announcement comes amid domestic unrest in France.
However, the precise relationship between the protests and the decision to postpone the West African trip has not been consistently described across reports.
The postponement means the planned high-level engagements with Nigeria and Senegal will not proceed on their original dates.
No new dates have been confirmed.
The implications for specific bilateral agreements or planned announcements remain unclear.
