Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has arrived at the Eagle Square in Abuja, the venue of the inauguration of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the 16th President of Nigeria. Osinbajo’s arrival at 9.55am was preceded by that of the First Lady, Aisha Buhari, the Vice President-elect, Senator Kashim Shetima, and President-elect, Bola Tinubu.
The event was attended by several dignitaries, including ministers, ambassadors, and leaders of the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC). The Chairman of the APC, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, and the National Secretary, Senator Iyiola Omisore, were also present at the venue.
The inauguration of Tinubu as the 16th President of Nigeria marks a significant milestone in the country’s political history. Tinubu, a former Governor of Lagos State, is widely regarded as one of the most influential politicians in Nigeria. He played a key role in the formation of the APC and was instrumental in the party’s victory in the 2015 and 2019 presidential elections.
As President, Tinubu is expected to tackle some of the most pressing issues facing Nigeria, including insecurity, corruption, and economic development. His inauguration has generated a lot of excitement and expectations among Nigerians, who are hoping for positive change under his leadership.
Details of the inauguration ceremony are expected to be released later, including Tinubu’s inaugural address and his plans for the country.
