Upon arrival, President Tinubu received a warm welcome from Ondo State Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Oyebanji, and other prominent government officials and political figures.
A ceremonial presidential parade was held at the airport’s terminal to honor the President’s visit to the Sunshine State.
During his visit, President Tinubu is scheduled to pay a visit to the palace of the Olowo of Owo, Oba Ajibade Ogunoye.
