The visit was confirmed in a statement issued by the President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Mr Bayo Onanuga.

In Borno State, the President will commission a number of key projects executed by the Borno State Government under Governor Babagana Zulum, as well as projects undertaken by the Federal Government. He is also scheduled to attend the wedding ceremony of Sadeeq Sheriff, son of former Borno State Governor and Senator, Ali Modu Sheriff, who will be married to Hadiza Kam Salem.

From Borno, President Tinubu will proceed to Bauchi State for a condolence visit to the Bauchi State Government and the family of the late Sheikh Dahiru Usman Bauchi. The respected Islamic scholar and leader of the Tijjaniyya Muslim Brotherhood passed away on November 27, 2025.

The President will thereafter travel to Lagos State, where he will spend the end-of-year holidays. While in Lagos, President Tinubu will serve as the Guest of Honour at the Eyo Festival scheduled for December 27, 2025, at the Tafawa Balewa Square.

This year’s Eyo Festival will honour several notable personalities, including the President’s late mother, Alhaja Abibatu Mogaji, former Lagos State Governor Alhaji Lateef Jakande, and former governor Sir Michael Otedola.
