“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.”
