Senior Federal Government officials, including Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, have been forced to cancel their flights to Kano, where they were billed to attend the 69th birthday and 12th Colloquium of National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
Bad weather caused Osinbajo’s flight cancellation, his media aide, Laolu Akande tweeted.
“VP Osinbajo spending the day celebrating Ashiwaju on his 69th birthday. Was on course to Kano this morning until weather conditions aborted travel plans.
“He’ll alongside Mr. President join the 12th BAT Colloquium virtually from the Presidential Villa. Happy birthday to Ashiwaju,” he wrote.
