Tinubu returns to Abuja after Sallah break in Lagos

President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday departed Lagos for Abuja after marking the Eid-el-Fitr, following his state visit to the United Kingdom.

Tinubu’s plane left the Presidential Wing of the Murtala Mohammed International Airport at 6:44 p.m.

The president returned to Nigeria from the United Kingdom last Friday and participated in the Eid-el-Fitr prayers held at Dodan Barracks in Lagos.

As part of his Lagos schedule, he received 23 governors, an EU delegation, and members of the Lagos State Governance Advisory Council (GAC).

Vice President Kashim Shettima also came to Lagos to brief the president on his trip to Borno State, following the recent bomb blasts.

Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun and the former governor of Ogun State, Olusegun Osoba, were at Tinubu’s residence for the departure ceremony.

Others at the airport for the departure were Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, his deputy, Obafemi Hamzat, senior government officials, and party stalwarts.
