Outgoing Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari on Friday led President-elect, Bola Tinubu on a tour of the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
Following their observance of the Jummah Prayers at the Aso Villa Mosque, they proceeded to the Press Gallery.
As they exited the Aso Chambers’ waiting room, President Buhari introduced the area to Tinubu, noting, “This is the Gallery where you will be meeting members of the press.”
