President Bola Tinubu has arrived in Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State, for a visit to the South-West state.

Governor Dapo Abiodun was on the ground to receive President Tinubu, who arrived on a Nigeria Air Force helicopter.

The President is in Ogun State to pay a visit to Ijebu Land’s Awujale, Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona.

He was accompanied by his Special Adviser on Special Duties, Communications, and Strategy, Dele Alake; the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu; and his Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila.

President Tinubu also inspected a guard of honour mounted for him by the military at the stadium after which he left for the private residence of the Awujale.

Tinubu observed the Sallah celebration in Lagos on Wednesday following his arrival from London, United Kingdom on Tuesday evening.

After the two-day summit, the President proceeded to London, United Kingdom, for a “short private visit”, his spokesman, Dele Alake, said in a statement last Saturday, hinting that his principal will be back in Nigeria for the Eid-el-Kabir festivities.
