2026 COMMONWEALTH:- PRESIDENT BOLA TINUBU TO RECEIVE KING’S BATON RELAY
Nigeria is set to welcome the King’s Baton Relay as part of the official countdown to the 2026 Commonwealth Games, with an event scheduled for July 1–2, 2025, in Abuja.
In an event of international significance, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will be formally presented with the Commonwealth Sport King’s Baton, as a delegation representing the Buckingham Palace arrives the country.
The King’s Baton Relay is a unifying tradition of the Commonwealth Games, symbolizing peace, collaboration, and shared values among nations.
This year, the Commonwealth Sport movement is partnering with the Royal Commonwealth Society (RCS) and Nigeria’s National Sports Commission (NSC) to champion a critical cause through the “Commonwealth Clean Oceans Plastics Campaign.”
