President Bola Tinubu joined thousands of Lagosians on Saturday for the grand finale of the 2025 Eyo Festival, marking the iconic cultural parade’s return after an eight-year absence.
At the event held in Tafawa Balewa Square, Tinubu stated that the festival showcases Nigeria’s vast tourism potential and serves as a powerful expression of the nation’s identity, particularly as it coincides with the “Detty December” season that attracts visitors from the diaspora.
The 2025 edition, which Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu described as a cultural homecoming for the President, honored the legacies of four late Lagos personalities, including former governors Mobolaji Johnson and Lateef Jakande.
