Nigerians have taken to social media, to react to President Muhammadu Buhari’s imminent arrival on Saturday.
Buhari will return to the country later in the day, after receiving medical attention in London, the presidency has confirmed.
The President’s return came after over 100 days in London for medical treatment.
He left the country on May 7, after handing over power to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who has functioned as Acting President since then.
Buhari is expected to speak to Nigerians in a broadcast by 7 a.m. on Monday, Femi Adesina, his spokesperson said.
