Vice-President-elect, Senator Kashim Shettima led the delegation that included Kano State Governor, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje; Senate President, Dr  Ahmad Lawan and the ruling party’s anointed candidate for the post of Senate President in the 10th Assembly, Senator Godswill Akpabio to welcome the  President Elect.

Dressed in a blue ‘babariga’ and his trademark cap to match, Tinubu was accompanied by his wife, Senator Oluremi, who also wore a matching blue attire.

The President-elect departed Nigeria, according to him, to avoid unnecessary pressures and distractions while he continued to fine-tune his transition programmes and policy options with some of his key aides.

It was gathered that the reason for the early arrival of Tinubu is due to the official opening of the Dangote Refinery complex in Kano on Monday, in which President Muhammadu Buhari is expected to commission.
