President-elect Bola Tinubu and Vice-President-elect Kashim Shettima have moved to the Defence Guest House in the Maitama District of Abuja.
Tinubu will reside at the Defence Guest House until he is sworn in as President on May 29, 2023.
From the Defence House, Tinubu will receive briefings and hold key meetings as President-elect.
This is not a new development. The current President, Muhammadu Buhari also lodged at the same location months before his inauguration on May 29, 2015.
Afterwards, he will move into his official residence at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja.
Tinubu won the 2023 presidential election after he polled 8,794,726.
The Peoples Democratic Party’s Atiku Abubakar came second with 6,984,520 votes, and Labour Party’s Peter Obi polled 6,101,533.
Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigerian Peoples Party garnered 1,496,687 votes to emerge fourth.
