President Bola Tinubu is set to begin a four-state tour on Thursday, starting with a visit to Jos in Plateau State.
The President is expected to commiserate with the state government and residents following recent gun attacks that claimed the lives of several citizens. The visit highlights the administration’s concern over ongoing security challenges and its solidarity with affected communities.
According to a statement issued in Abuja by Presidential Spokesperson, Bayo Onanuga, the trip comes after the postponement of an earlier planned visit to Iperu, where the President was scheduled to flag off operations at the Gateway International Cargo Airport.
After his stop in Plateau, Tinubu will proceed to Lagos State to observe the Good Friday.
On Saturday, he will travel to Ogun State for the commissioning of the Gateway International Cargo Airport. During the visit, he is also expected to inaugurate two commercial aircraft designated for export and import operations, aimed at boosting economic growth in the state.
In addition, the President will inaugurate the new facility of the Nigeria Customs Service Federal Operations Unit, along with operational vehicles to enhance efficiency in trade facilitation and border management.
Tinubu will then return to Lagos, where he is scheduled to commission several infrastructure projects executed by the administration of Babajide Sanwo-Olu. These include the Ojota/Opebi Link Bridge, the Lagos State Geographic Information System Building, and a Multi-Agency Complex named after the President. He is also expected to inaugurate a school complex to support improvements in the education sector.
Before concluding the tour, Tinubu will visit Bayelsa State on April 10 to commission projects completed under the administration of Duoye Diri.
The tour combines condolence visits with the commissioning of key infrastructure projects across multiple sectors, reflecting both governance and humanitarian priorities.
