PHOTOS: Tinubu backs to Abuja from Japan, Brazil trips

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has made his much-anticipated return to Nigeria following his significant diplomatic missions to Japan and Brazil.

Touching down at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport at precisely 1:20 a.m. local time, his arrival marked the conclusion of an engaging trip aimed at bolstering international relations.

Upon his return, President Tinubu was greeted warmly, engaging in a cordial handshake with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, reflecting a strong sense of camaraderie within the nation’s leadership.

According to reports from Tribune Online, the President departed from Brasília, Brazil, around 12:57 p.m. local time on Wednesday. His visit to Brazil was preceded by active participation in the 9th Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD9) in Japan, where strategic discussions were held to further Nigeria’s diplomatic interests.

In Brazil, President Tinubu had fruitful discussions with President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and met with numerous high-ranking Brazilian officials. The two leaders engaged in important dialogues that culminated in the signing of five crucial Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs).

These agreements encompass pivotal sectors such as aviation, foreign affairs, science and technology, and agriculture—each sector integral to advancing Nigeria’s development agenda and fostering economic growth.
