Nigerian president, President Muhammadu Buhari back in Nigeria after spending two weeks in the United Kingdom.

Per what we gathered, he arrived at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport on April 15 and this was confirmed by one of his aides.

It could be recalled that Mr. Buhari left Nigeria to go for a medical in the United Kingdom on March 30.

This threw the whole country in a state of confusion as Nigerians quizzed why he left Nigeria when he claims the healthcare system is good only for him to have a medical check-up abroad.

Former Nigerian presidential aide, Reno Omokri even led a protest to harass the president out of London.

These protests went on for days before Reno suspended the protests due to reasons best known to him.

Upon his return, he was received at the airport by the chief of staff to the president, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari; the minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Malam Muhammed Bello and the National Security Adviser (NSA) to the president, Maj.-Gen. Babagana Monguno retd.

others who were also present include the service chiefs, acting Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Usman Baba, the director-general, National Intelligence Agency (NIA), Ahmed Rufa’i, the director-general of the Department of State Services, Yusuf Bichi and other presidential aides.

After a brief welcoming ceremony at the airport, the president then boarded a presidential helicopter that took him to the Presidential Villa.

His arrival was also confirmed by his personal assistant of media, Bashir Ahmad in a post on Twitter.

The post he made reads;

“President Muhammadu Buhari has returned to Abuja this afternoon, after a private trip to London, the United Kingdom.”
