Tinubu Returns from Equatorial Guinea, Signs Pipeline Deal
President Bola Tinubu returned to Abuja on Friday evening after a three-day official visit to Equatorial Guinea. His Gulfstream jet landed at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport around 6:30 pm, marking his 22nd foreign trip since taking office 15 months ago.
He was greeted by senior government officials, including Chief of Staff Femi Gbajabiamila, Secretary to the Government of the Federation George Akume, and Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike.
During his visit, President Tinubu and Equatorial Guinean President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo signed an agreement on the Gulf of Guinea Pipeline Project, which will enhance cooperation on gas exploration and create job opportunities. Tinubu highlighted the agreement’s potential to promote peace, security, and economic growth in Africa. He also addressed the need for African leaders to tackle issues such as skill migration, tribalism, and outdated systems to foster development and retain talent on the continent.
It has been reported that Bola Ahmed Tinubu was absent at the commissioning of the Opebi-Mende Link Bridge, which took place on April 8, 2026.
However, Senate President Godswill Akpabio represented the President and carried out the ceremony.
As he commissioned the project, he stated “On behalf of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, I commission these projects.”
