Arsenal star Bukayo Saka set to meet President Tinubu before departing Nigeria

After meeting with the Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Arsenal star Bukayo Saka is reportedly set to meet with the new President of Nigeria, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinibu.

Saka arrived at Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos on May 31, 2023, after the completion of the 2022/23 Premier League season.

Born to a Nigerian family abroad, the 21-year-old is believed to be home for a holiday and some charitable work before resuming pre-season with his team.

The Arsenal Academy graduate has been meeting with Gunners fans around Lagos and also visited some orphanage homes around Bariga.

Credited for significantly influencing Arsenal’s Premier League finish as runners-up to eventual champion Manchester City, the star boy paraded  Lagos in native attires.

On June 3, Saka met with Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the two-term governor of Lagos State, and it is expected that he will meet up with the newly elected President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Although, Saka’s camp or the Presidency has yet to confirm the meeting.
