President Mohammadu Buhari, who was due back to Nigeria today after 10 days of medical refuge in the UK, appears to be enjoying his stay as Vice President Yemi Osinbajo yesterday announced that he will now be back on Sunday.
Osinbajo coolly explained that his boss would stay back in London to rest a while, as if there is no place conducive for resting in Nigeria.
He made this known while he spoke to State House Correspondents shortly before the commencement of the National Economic Council, NEC meeting. He however assured that the president was in good health.
“The President will be back on Sunday. I spoke with him yesterday evening and I think it is just the best that he takes the weekend off. He will certainly be back on Sunday.
“I think the most straightforward thing is when he will be back. He will be back on Sunday. There is no point rushing back on Friday or something like that.
“He will just take the weekend off and be back on Sunday.
“He is in perfect health and ready to resume work on Monday morning.
“Mr. President is in good condition, he is fine, he is very well. He should take a day or two off in London and rest a bit and come back hale and hearty on Sunday and be ready for work on Monday.
“So we expect him back on Sunday”, Osinbajo said.
