President Muhammadu Buhari will travel to London for two weeks at the end of his trip to Saudi Arabia on Saturday in what his spokesman Femi Adesina described as a “private visit” in a statement.
The statement read, ”President Muhammadu Buhari leaves the country today on an official trip to Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to attend Economic Forum of the Future Investment Initiative (FII) in Riyadh,” he said.
”On the sideline of the event, President Buhari will hold bilateral talks with His Majesty King Salman and His Majesty King Abdullah ll of Jordan.
”On Wednesday, 30th October, 2019, the President will participate in the High Level Event titled “What is Next for Africa: How will Investment and Trade Transform the Continent into the Next Great Economic Success Story?” with Presidents of Kenya, Congo-Brazzaville and Burkina Faso.
”At the end of the summit, President Buhari will on Saturday 2nd November, 2019, proceed to the United Kingdom on a private visit. He is expected to return to Nigeria on 17th November, 2019.”
Recall that the president had travelled to the UK in April on a 10-day “private visit.”
But in 2017, Buhari spent about three months in London on medical vacation.
