President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has arrived Abuja, the nation’s capital, after a weeklong summit in New Delhi and brief stopover in the UAE.

Tinubu embarked on a working visit to New Delhi in India for the G20 Summit and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for a diplomatic intervention.

While in the UAE, the president met with his counterpart, His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, and finalised a historic agreement, which has resulted in the immediate lifting of the visa ban placed on Nigerian travellers.

Having successfully struck the deal, both Etihad Airlines and Emirates Airlines are to immediately resume flight operations into and out of Nigeria.

As negotiated between the two Heads of State, the restoration of flight operations by both airlines and between the two countries, does not involve any financial commitment by the Nigerian government.
