President Bola Tinubu of Nigeria has arrived in N’Djamena, the capital of Chad.
The Nigerian leader, who arrived the African nation on Thursday morning, is set to attend the inauguration of Mahamat Idriss Deby as the new President of Chad.
It would be recalled that the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, had earlier announced in a statement on Wednesday in Abuja that the Nigerian leader would be in Chad.
Ngelale said President Tinubu will be accompanied on the trip by senior government officials and will return after the ceremony.
Naija News reports that the inauguration of President Déby follows his declaration as the winner of the country’s presidential election earlier this month and subsequent affirmation by the Constitutional Court of Chad.
