Nigerian President Bola Tinubu arrived in the UK on Tuesday for a two-day state visit hosted by King Charles III, images broadcast by Nigerian television outlets showed.
The first such visit by a Nigerian head of state in nearly four decades will include a banquet hosted by Charles at the historic Windsor Castle, west of London.
Nigeria is part of the Commonwealth, while Britain is home to a massive Nigerian diaspora.
Tinubu touched down at London Stansted Airport shortly before 4:00 pm UK time (1600 GMT).
His trip comes a day after Nigeria’s northeastern city of Maiduguri was hit by coordinated blasts by suspected suicide bombers, killing 23 and wounding more than 100 others.
