President Bola Tinubu, on Tuesday morning, departed Lagos for Abuja after a three-day working visit, to begin another round of inauguration ahead of the commemoration of his one year in office.
Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the Governor of Lagos State, and other dignitaries were on hand to see him off.
The president was transported in a Nigerian Air Force aircraft with registration number 5N-FGN.
The president had arrived in Lagos on Saturday to flag off implementation of his administration’s legacy project, the Lagos-Calabar Superhighway, estimated to cost about N15 trillion.
During his visit, the president inaugurated a concrete-paved road to the nation’s major ports in Apapa and Tin Can Island on Sunday.
According to a statement on Saturday by Bayo Onanuga, the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, the re-constructed road was financed by the Dangote Group, using its tax credits.
The president, upon arrival in Abuja, is expected to inaugurate the Southern Parkway, which the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, named after him.
On Wednesday, the president will attend the National Assembly Dialogue Series, after which he will unveil the National Assembly Library Complex.
He will leave the National Assembly to re-launch the commercialisation of Abuja Light Rail, also known as Abuja Metro, and symbolically join the train ride to the city centre.
