Nigerians are suspicious of President Muhammadu Buhari’s latest trip to the United Kingdom, with many fearing that his health issues may have arisen again.
Buhari is scheduled to fly out of Nigeria on Monday, for an official visit to the UK, where he is expected to hold discussions on Nigeria–British relations with Prime Minister Theresa May, prior to the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meetings (CHOGM) scheduled for April 18-20, 2018.
He will also meet with the Chief Executive Officer of Royal Dutch Plc, Ben van Beurden, in connection with Shell and other partners’ plan to invest $15b in Nigeria’s oil industry.
However, the timing of Buhari’s trip, which is 10 days before the CHOGM, has raised suspicions among Nigerians.
Here are some reactions to the President’s trip gathered from Twitter:
