BREAKING: Buhari off to London for medical check-up

President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday left Nigeria for London, United Kingdom (UK), for his routine medical check-up.

This is according to a statement by Femi Adesina, his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity on Monday afternoon.

President Buhari is expected to spend more than one week in London.

“President Muhammadu Buhari leaves for London, United Kingdom, October 31, 2022, for routine medical check-up.

“He returns to the country in the second week of November, 2022,” Adesina said.

As president, Buhari, 79, has spent days getting medical help in the UK.

Following the criticism that trailed his recent trip, Garba Shehu, presidential spokesperson, had defended the president, saying his decision to embark on the medical trip is “wise and quite correct”.
