”He has arrived minutes after all the Heads of State had been moved from the presidential holding room and ushered into the auditorium.
”He proceeded to his reserved seat”.
Tinubu left Nigeria on Sunday to attend the event. It is not clear why the president showed up at the event late after his colleagues were already seated.
