Prior to his departure, a statement from the Presidential Spokesman, Garba Shehu, stated that Buhari was expected to return to the country within the second week of April.<\/p>\n

According to Garba Shehu, the president \u201cis due back in the country during the second week of April 2021.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the second week ends today, April 15 without an update from the presidency regarding the president\u2019s return.<\/p>\n

Recall that the president\u2019s trip to the UK had stimulated controversies within and outside the country as many antagonized the decision to receive medical attention from foreign doctors.<\/p>\n

Recall that some Nigerians residing in the United Kingdom, on April 2, stormed the Abuja House, 2 Campden Hill, Kensington, in London demanding for Buhari\u2019s repatriation back to the country.<\/p>\n

The group led by a former presidential aide, Reno Omokri blamed the president for not improving the healthcare system in Nigeria, stressing that it was a shame for a president to consistently patronize foreign doctors at the detriment of the local health workers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
