PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari returned to Nigeria on Friday evening from London, the United Kingdom where he had gone to honour appointment with his doctors
President Buhari return on Friday at about 6:47pm was contrary to the earlier announcement before he traveled on Tuesday by his media aide that he would be returning on Saturday
On hand to receive him were the Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari, the Minister of Federal Capital Territory, Mohammed Bello, among other top government functionaries and presidential aides.
Recall that his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu had in a statement on Monday stated that the President was expected back on Saturday 12th May, 2018.
He had also said, on his return, the President was expected to embark on a two-day state scheduled visit to Jigawa, which was postponed earlier as a result of the All Progressives Congress, APC’s Ward Congresses.
President left Nigeria Tuesday afternoon after receiving Letters of Credence from some diplomats to undertake a four-day trip to the United Kingdom.
This medical trip made it the third in 2018 alone, the first being the nine days visit just before the recent Commonwealth Heads of government meeting in that country and the second, during the “technical stop over” in London on his way to Nigeria from his recent visit to the United States on the invitation of President Donald Trump.
