The Government of Saint Lucia awarded Tinubu the Knight Commander of the Order of Saint Lucia (KCOSL) on Sunday afternoon.

Saint Lucia’s Prime Minister made the announcement public via an official statement on the government’s verified X social handle.
He said, “The Governor General has officially approved the conferment of Knight Commander title on H.E. Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”

Saint Lucian citizens welcomed the Nigerian delegation with traditional celebrations, showcasing the country’s strong ties with African heritage.
President Tinubu concluded his address by urging African diaspora unity and pledging Nigeria’s continued partnership with Saint Lucia.
