President Buhari to rest in London till Sunday

President Mohammadu Buhari, who was to resume duties in Abuja on Thursday, is to rest in London, United Kingdom, till Sunday.

This was disclosed by Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, while speaking to State House Correspondents shortly before the commencement of the National Economic Council, NEC meeting in Abuja.

“The President will be back on Sunday. I spoke with him yesterday evening and I think it is just the best that he takes the weekend off. He will certainly be back on Sunday. I think the most straightforward thing is when he will be back. He will be back on Sunday.

“There is no point rushing back on Friday or something like that. “He will just take the weekend off and be back on Sunday. He is in perfect health and ready to resume work on Monday morning. Mr. President is in good condition, he is fine, he is very well.

“He should take a day or two off in London and rest a bit and come back hale and hearty on Sunday and be ready for work on Monday. So we expect him back on Sunday”, he said.
It would be recalled that President Buhari left Nigeria for London, on a 10 day medical trip to treat an ear infection on Monday, June 6, 2016.
