Standup9ja: Buhari will return to UK doctors – Presidency
The Presidency said President Muhammadu Buhari has not
changed plans to return to his physicians in the United Kingdom for follow-up
treatment.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and
Publicity, Garba Shehu, disclosed this in a text message he sent to our
correspondent yesterday.
He was reacting to a report that President Buhari had
decided to bring his doctors to Nigeria rather than return to the UK.
The presidential spokesman described the report as false.
Shehu also denied that presidential advance team had earlier
this week left for London.
“It is false news. We are not aware of the reported advance
movements. The last time the president spoke about this, he said he would
return to his doctors after some time. We are not aware that this has changed,”
he said.
It would be recalled that President Buhari had returned from
a 50-day medical vacation in London on March 10.
On his arrival at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa in Abuja
that time, Buhari had noted that though he felt “much better now. All I will
need is to do further follow-ups within some weeks.”
