Tinubu’s inauguration, as the 16th President of Nigeria, marks the 7th consecutive democratic transition of power in the 24 years of unbroken democracy in Nigeria, following the return to civilian administration in 1999.
Over 20 presidents of countries around the world, including Africa are at the venue to witness today’s inauguration of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the 16th president of the country.
