After an uproar on social media over the gridlock caused by his movement, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has finally moved to Aso Rock on Sunday night two months after his inauguration.
He had initially moved to the Glass House, usually a transit accommodation, pending the completion of the renovation of the president’s official residence.
He had been operating from a private residence in Asokoro since his inauguration but the security measures led to public complaints of heavy traffic as a result of road closures and restrictions.
“He finally moved on Sunday night because of public complaints over the traffic congestion around his movements,” as per reporting by TheCable, quoting a source.
“He too was unhappy with the discomfort to the public but the official residence is still not ready, so he decided to move to the Glass House.”
The newspaper said the residence would be ready in August.
