Security is expected to be tight as heavy military and other security presence is anticipated.

Security report said there is the possibility of heavy traffic due to road blockade/ closure while the Presidential convoy is in transit.

Sanwo-Olu, who is expected to receive the president would very early in the morning hand over some equipment to the Nigerian police at the Police College, Ikeja.
