Buhari and Tinubu in London on Thursday
President Muhammadu Buhari will not return to Nigeria from London, where he is spending his 10-day medical vacation, until Sunday. Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo disclosed this to State House correspondents on Thursday shortly before the commencement of a meeting of the National Economic Council at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Buhari’s 10-day vacation expired on Wednesday. By the time he would be arriving in Nigeria on Sunday, he would have spent 14 days. He was earlier scheduled to arrive the country on Thursday. Osinbajo, however, said it was just appropriate for Buhari to take the weekend off and rest very well in London before returning to the country. He said he had spoken to the President on the telephone and he was in good health condition. The Vice-President said Buhari would resume in his office on Monday morning.
