BREAKING: Buhari returns to Nigeria after ‘short rest’ in London


President Muhammadu Buhari has returned to Nigeria from London, where he has been taking a short rest.

Buhari arrived at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport at about 4.45 pm on Thursday.

Among those who received him at the airport were Ibrahim Gambari, his chief of staff; Muhammed Bello, minister of the federal capital territory (FCT); Babagana Monguno, national security adviser, and other security chiefs.

Buhari departed for the UK on March 30 for what the presidency described as his “routine medical check-up.”

The president later said he was taking a “short rest” in London in a letter to Abdullah ll Bin Al-Hussein, the king of the Hashemite kingdom of Jordan.

DURING HIS LATEST MEDICAL TRIP…

  • The Medical and Health Workers Union of Nigeria (MHWUN) of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) downed tools to protest issues mostly bothering on staff welfare.
  • Usman Alkali Baba took over from Mohammed Adamu as the inspector-general of police (IGP).
  • Nigeria’s security woes continued as bandits and Boko Haram insurgents continued their attacks on some communities mostly in the north.
  • Gunmen broke into the federal prison in Imo state and freed over 1,800 inmates before razing a nearby police station.
  • South-east governors set up a regional security outfit to help address the worsening security situation in the zone.
