The President was accompanied by Gen Musa, rtd, and Ribadu, among many others.
Rhodes-Vivour said, “In relation to the trip to England, the thing that jumps out at me is how the NSA and the defense boss were in England, sipping coffee, sipping tea while bombs were going off in Maiduguri.
“The NSA and the Minister of Defence were part of Tinubu’s delegation to the UK for the State Visit.
“This came at a time when bombs killed about 23 persons and injured and displaced many more. I cannot reconcile the insensitivity and carelessness of this government. Sipping tea while all this is happening is completely disgraceful.”
