President Muhammadu Buhari will on Tuesday (today) undertake a four-day trip to the United Kingdom to see his doctor.
The
Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Malan
Garba Shehu, disclosed this in a statement on Monday.
He
said in the course of the technical stopover for aircraft maintenance in
London on his way back from Washington last week, Buhari had a meeting
with his doctor.
The
presidential spokesman stated that the doctor requested the president to
return for a meeting which he (Buhari) agreed to do.
Shehu said President Buhari would return on Saturday.
The
presidential spokesman was silent on whether the president had
transmitted a letter to the National Assembly to inform the legislature
of his medical trip.
He
said on his return, the president’s two-day state visit to Jigawa, which
was postponed because of the All Progressives Congress, APC’s Ward
Congresses, would take place on Monday and Tuesday.
President
Buhari returned from London last August after undergoing medical
treatment for an undisclosed ailment for over three months.
