President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Friday arrived in Lagos on a working visit as Nigeria prepares for a low-key celebration of its 65th Independence Anniversary.
His arrival was confirmed in a statement issued late Friday by presidential spokesman, Bayo Onanuga.
According to the statement, the President travelled to Lagos after attending the coronation of the Olubadan of Ibadanland, His Imperial Majesty Oba Rashidi Ladoja, in Ibadan, Oyo State.
While in Lagos, Tinubu is expected to hold strategic meetings with private sector leaders and senior government officials.
Onanuga further disclosed that the President will visit Imo State on Tuesday, September 30, to inaugurate projects executed by Governor Hope Uzodimma.
He added that as part of the Independence anniversary activities, Tinubu will commission the remodelled National Theatre in Lagos, recently renamed the Wole Soyinka Centre for Culture and the Creative Arts.
