British-Nigerian professional boxer Anthony Joshua paid a courtesy call on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at his Lagos residence.
The meeting was made public on Wednesday through photographs shared on X by Dada Olusegun, Special Assistant to President Tinubu on social media.
During the visit, Joshua presented the president with an autographed boxing glove with a personalized message for the president.
The inscription reads: “To the great Asiwaju Jagaban, Borgu of Africa, 'Bola A Tinubu'.”
This visit comes two days after Joshua's recent meeting with Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State at the Government House in Abeokuta on Monday.
Governor Abiodun appointed the former world boxing champion as “sports ambassador” of the state.
