As the current Chairman of ECOWAS, Tinubu will lead a symbolic reenactment of the 1975 declaration that founded the regional bloc at the Nigerian Institute of International Affairs in Victoria Island.
He will also deliver a keynote address at Eko Hotels and Suites, highlighting the bloc’s achievements over the past five decades.
During his visit, Tinubu is scheduled to commission several major infrastructure projects, including Section I of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, the Lekki Deep Sea Port Tax Credit Concrete Road, and the 7th Axial Road.
The President will also flag off Section II of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway project. Before returning to Abuja, Tinubu will observe the Eid-el-Kabir prayers at the State House Mosque in Dodan Barracks.
