Tinubu returns to Nigeria after business trip to France
Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, the incoming president, has returned from his business trip to France.
The two-term governor of Lagos State arrived in his own plane at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja at around 2.15 pm, where he was greeted by party members, fans, and other governors.
His vice-president-elect, senator Kashim Shettima, Governor Abdullahi Ganduje, Senator Ahmad Lawan, and Senator Godswill Akpabio, the chosen candidate of the ruling party for the position of Senate president in the 10th Assembly, were also part of the delegation.
Tinubu, who was wearing a blue "Babariga" and his signature headgear, was joined by his wife, Senator Oluremi, who was also dressed in a blue outfit.
In order to avoid undue demands and distractions while he continues to fine-tune his transition plans and policy alternatives with some of his senior advisers, the president-elect left Nigeria.
According to a press release from his media adviser, Tunde Rahman, the President-elect will also use his visit to meet with potential investors and other important partners in order to promote investment prospects in the nation.
Before leaving on the journey, Tinubu met with Tajudeen Abbas and Benjamin Kalu, the APC's nominees for Speaker and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives.
On Monday, the Dangote Refinery complex in his home state will be formally opened by the President, Muhammadu Buhari, and other dignitaries. The former governor of Lagos is anticipated to attend.
