BREAKING: Buhari travels to London for medical check-up

The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), will on Monday, October 31, depart Abuja for London, the United Kingdom for a routine medical check-up.

It is still unclear what ailment he was being treated for but the country was advised to “pray” for the President.

The long treatment must have helped as the President would not visit London for another medical checkup until a year later in May 2018 when he spent four days on “medical review.” His trip came amid a labour crisis in the health sector which saw members of the Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors commencing on an indefinite strike over the unpaid allowance.

Earlier, Buhari was scheduled to visit London from Nairobi, Kenya where he was attending the United Nations Environmental Programme at 50.Earlier, the president’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, had announced that Buhari would proceed to London from Kenya for “routine medical checks that will last for a maximum of two weeks.”
