The ceremony was held indoors at the Capitol Rotunda due to dangerously cold temperatures, making it the coldest Inauguration Day since 1985.
It was also the 60th presidential inauguration in the 250-year-old US democracy.
Newly sworn in US Vice President JD Vance was ushered into the Rotunda at exactly 5:40pm Nigerian time, while Trump entered at 5:43PM for the one-hour ceremony.
Trump was sworn in at exactly 6:02 pm Nigerian time with two Bibles by Chief Justice Robert. One is a personal Bible given to him by his mother in 1955, and another is the historic Lincoln Bible.
