Buhari Arrives Abuja After Eight-day Trip To Saudi Arabia

President Muhammadu Buhari has returned to Abuja after embarking on a one-day working visit to Imo State.

Naija News reports that the Presidential jet landed at the private wing of the Nnamdi Azikwe International Airport around 05:00 pm.

Thereafter, Buhari’s chopper arrived at the Villa premises at about 05:32 pm.

Earlier, the President had inaugurated several infrastructural projects completed by the Hope Uzodinma administration.

Some of the projects commissioned are the newly reconstructed Imo State House of Assembly Complex, the 36-kilometre dualized Owerri/Orlu road and the first phase of the dualised 53-kilometre Owerri/Okigwe Road.

Other projects are Naze-Nekede-Ihiagwa-Obinze Link Road Phase One, an underground tunnel on D-Tiger Road Owerri, the Egbeada Bye-Pass and the new State Executive Council Chambers at the Government House, among others.

Governor Uzodinma had said the two roads to be commissioned by Buhari would qualify as one the best roads in Nigeria and even anywhere in the world, adding that “the two roads have made a difference in the economic development and improvement of the State cutting across over seven Local Governments.

“The Assembly Complex has been re-equipped and re-furbished with state of the art equipment/gadgets and furniture that have brought it to a world-class standard and in fact, the best in Nigeria today.
