Buhari appears hale and fit after returning from medical trip (see photos)
President Muhammadu Buhari appeared fit and healthy in office following his return from the United Kingdom to the country. President Buhari arrived on Sunday, June 19 after spending 13 days in the UK on a medical trip.
When he arrived in the country via the Nnamdi Azikiwe airport in Abuja, the president was asked how he was feeling and he replied that he was fine and even humorously challenged the reporter to a fight. “You have seen me. You saw me when I was going. You can do the assessment yourself.
“I am okay. You can see me inspecting the guard of honour. You can see I am taller than you. Do you want to wrestle with me, you can do so.” The president resumed office on Monday, June 20 and received the vice president, Professor Yemi Osinbajo in his office. The vice president had duly presided over the Federal Executive Council meeting twice in the absence of Buhari. Initially the trip was planned as a 10-day vacation.
The medical check-up with an ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialist was scheduled for the president. However, the duration of Buhari’s stay was unexpectedly prolonged after his personal physician advised him to sought foreign doctors as a precaution. While in London, President Buhari was visited by Bola Tinubu, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress.
