President Muhammadu Buhari is scheduled to return to the country from his vacation to the United Kingdom this Saturday.
While speaking in confidence exclusively to The Leadership, a senior official in the presidency on Thursday, said that except there would be any last minute change, all is set for President Muhammadu Buhari’s return, adding that he is scheduled to return to the country from his vacation to the United Kingdom this Saturday.
The source simply said: “Barring any last minute change, we are expecting the president back this weekend, probably on Saturday.”
Recall that it was gathered that the president had on Tuesday this week, cancelled an interview with a foreign media organisation, but may possibly grant an interview in London before the weekend.
Another source in the presidency also said that President Buhari “had already packed his bags to leave on Sunday but was advised by his doctors to wait and get results of some tests he conducted before leaving that country.”
“I can confidently tell you that Mr. President might still be there (in London) because he has to succumb to the superior knowledge of physicians who conducted medical checks on him, but his mind is in Nigeria,” he added.
While commenting on rumours that the president is incapacitated, the source who preferred not to be named in print because he is not in a position to officially speak on the matter said;
“What else do you expect from people? If it were to be other past presidents who go on vacation or medical checkup without official notification, there wouldn’t have been room for such rumour.
“But this is a president who is determined to remain transparent in whatever he does in office. Don’t forget that this is not the first time His Excellency is embarking on a vacation outside the shores of the country.”
