In London, Chief Justice Olukayode Ariwoola was spotted posing as an elderly man with physical impairments. It was discovered today during what, according to sources with the Supreme Court, was a covert preparation for a meeting with President-elect Bola Tinubu.
As Mr. Tinubu arrived in London for what his team described as a relaxing trip following a hectic campaign that preceded his declaration as Nigeria’s president-elect last month, Mr. Ariwoola’s movements were made public. However, Mr. Tinubu hid his trip to London until Sahara Reporters revealed it on Wednesday afternoon, claiming the trip was necessary due to a medical emergency.

On March 11, Mr. Ariwoola reportedly left Nigeria via Abuja’s Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport. According to our sources, he was wheeled through the terminals to a British Airways flight.
Mr. Ariwoola, 64, was also wheeled into a hotel in the city’s center when he arrived in London and has remained there ever since. But as soon as he arrived at the hotel, Mr. Ariwoola stopped using his wheelchair and began navigating the space on his own. There are no known physical impairments in the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
