ABUJA, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) – At about 10:38am on Monday, 29 May, 2023, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu took over the rein of affairs of Nigeria from ex-President Muhammadu Buhari.
The former Lagos State Governor took his oath of office and was pronounced Nigeria’s 16th President amid pomp and pageantry.
Shortly before that incident, Vice-President Kashim Shettima, was also sworn-in as Nigeria’s number two citizen, taking over from Professor Yemi Osinbajo.
Nigerians have since reacted to the new development which ushers in a fresh set of hands to pilot the affairs of Africa’s most populous nation and the most populous black nation on earth.
Photojournalist Emmanuel Osodi documented some beautiful moments from the event and shares them below:
