From Plateau, the President will travel to Lagos to observe Good Friday.

On Saturday, April 4, Tinubu will travel to Ogun State for the inauguration of the Cargo Airport and the inauguration of two commercial aircraft for the export and import of goods, aimed at boosting the state's economic growth.

He will also inaugurate the new edifice of the Federal Operations Unit of the Nigerian Customs Service and its operational vehicles.

The President will, thereafter return to Lagos to continue the Easter holiday, during which he is also expected to inaugurate infrastructure projects undertaken by the administration of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

These include: the iconic Ojota/Opebi Link Bridge; the Lagos State Geographic Information System Building; the Multi-Agency Complex named after the President, and a school Complex.

Before returning to Abuja, Tinubu will visit Bayelsa State on April 10 to inaugurate some of Governor Duoye Diri's completed projects.
