Tinubu Postpones Ogun Trip, Heads To Jos

President Bola Tinubu has postponed his scheduled trip to Iperu, Ogun State, where he was to flag off operations at the Gateway International Cargo Airport.

Tinubu, according to presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga, will travel to Jos, the Plateau State capital, to commiserate with the government and people of the state over recent attacks that claimed at least 28 lives on Palm Sunday, March 29, 2026.

The gunmen were said to have opened fire on civilians in the predominantly Christian neighbourhoods of Angwan-Rukuba.

The victims include women, children and students.

The incident reportedly occurred around 8 p.m. across Angwan Rukuba (Gari Ya Waye), Eto Baba, and nearby student residential areas.

Onanuga said from Plateau, Tinubu will travel to Lagos to observe Good Friday.
