The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Boeing 737 jet conveying the President touched down at the Nigerian Air Force Base, Kaduna, at 01:27 pm.
The president was received by Gov. Uba Sani, top government officials, traditional rulers, and other dignitaries.
Shortly after his arrival, Tinubu proceeded to Rigachikun in Igabi Local Government Area, where he is expected to inaugurate several infrastructural projects, including road networks, healthcare centres, and educational facilities.
The projects are part of broader initiatives by the Kaduna State Government to enhance rural development and improve access to essential services.
