President Bola Tinubu has been sworn-in as the 16th president of Nigeria.

This followed the official handing over from his immediate predecessor, ex-President Muhammadu Buhari.

Tinubu was sworn-in by the Chief Justice of the Federation, CJN, at the Eagles Square on Monday.


During his inaugural speech, Tinubu vowed to end the fuel subsidy regime amongst other things.

Below is Tinubu’s full speech…

I stand before you honoured to assume the sacred mandate you have given me. My love for this nation is abiding. My confidence in its people, unwavering. And my faith in God Almighty, absolute. I know that His hand shall provide the needed moral strength and clarity of purpose in those instances when we seem to have reached the limits of our human capacity.

This day is bold and majestic yet bright and full of spirit, as is our precious nation.

As a nation, we have long ago decided to march beyond the dimness of night into the open day of renewed national hope.

The question we now ask ourselves is whether to remain faithful to the work inherent in building a better society or retreat into the shadows of our unmet potential.

For me, there is but one answer. We are too great a nation and too grounded as a people to rob ourselves of our finest destiny.

This nation’s journey has been shaped by the prayers of millions, and the collective sacrifices of us all.
