President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has arrived in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to perform Umrah, the lesser Islamic pilgrimage, in the Holy City of Makkah.
Departing the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja on Thursday afternoon, October 29, 2026, the Nigerian leader landed in Saudi Arabia, where he was received by the Nigerian Ambassador to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Yakubu Gambo, alongside Saudi Arabia’s Head of Royal Protocol, Ahmad bin Thafir.
According to an official diplomatic release from the Presidency, the visit offers President Tinubu an opportunity for spiritual devotion, reflection, and prayers focused on national peace, security, social stability, and economic growth.
During his stay in Makkah, the President will complete the prescribed religious rites while engaging in supplications for the nation and its citizenry before returning to Abuja next week.
"The visit is an opportunity for spiritual reflection, devotion, and prayers for the nation’s peace, unity, stability, and continued progress as the President seeks Allah’s blessings for Nigeria." — Presidency Official Statement
