Controversial online news platform, Sahara Reporters has alleged that President Muhammadu Buhari will be leaving Nigeria soon for the United Kingdom to continue his treatment of an undisclosed illness.
The Nigerian leader of Fulani descent had already spent 49 days in London in what has been mocked to be a ‘medical exile’. Buhari returned to Nigeria on the 10th of March, 2017 and admitted he would be leaving for the UK to continue his treatment in due time.
SaharaReporters through a tweet on the 6th of April, 2017 at around 2pm broke the news that the processing of air tickets of a 6-man ‘Advance Party’ had already started.
“FLASH: @ngrpresident Buhari begins preparation to return to the UK for treatment as processing of air tickets for 6-man Advance Party starts” the medium revealed.
Some eagle-eyed Nigerians yesterday, commented on the frail look of Buhari while presenting his economic blueprint alongside other executives and legislators. The President’s faint voice while reading a prepared speech raised concerns about the state of his health.
Meanwhile, the Presidency is yet to confirm Buhari’s rumoured itinerary.
