Buhari Extends Medical Vacation, Fails to Return

President Muhammadu Buhari has sought extension of his medical vacation to complete more tests and failed to return to the country yesterday as earlier planned.

A statement from the Presidency read in part:

“President Muhammadu Buhari has written to the National Assembly today, February 5, 2017, informing of his desire to extend his leave in order to complete and receive the results of a series of tests recommended by his doctors,” the statement said.

“The President had planned to return to Abuja this evening, but was advised to complete the test cycle before returning.”
