As President Muhammadu Buhari, continues his medical vacation in the United Kingdom, UK, the President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki, and the House of Representatives Speaker, Yakubu Dogara, have between Monday and Thursday visited acting President, Yemi Osinbajo
, more frequently.
Hinnews Recalls that the two National Assembly leaders were at the Villa on Tuesday to see Mr. Osinbajo.
The Vice President has been on acting capacity as President, since Buhari traveled to UK on January 19 for a 10-day vacation, during which the Presidency said he will attend routine medical checks.
The visit to the Presidential Villa on Thursday by Saraki is the second time this week he was meeting with Osinbajo.
He was at the Villa in the company of Dogara, whose Thursday’s visit to the Villa is reportedly his third this week.
The Speaker had first visited on Monday with Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State, the Progressives Governors Forum chairman. Dogara and the Senate President had also visited the Villa on Tuesday.
Saraki had told newsmen after the Tuesday visit that he was at the Vila in relation to the 2017 budget defence.
According to political observers, their frequent visits to the Villa, was a reflection of the fact that they were more comfortable working with Osinbajo, than Buhari, who is largely seen as slow and less active to his duties.
