Buhari Returns Tomorrow In The Company Of Shagari by mdbissalla(op): 9:20pm On May 27, 2015
Buhari Returns Tomorrow in the
Company of Shagari.

President-elect Muhammadu Buhari will
be returning to Nigeria on Thursday
morning after a six-day trip to the
United Kingdom in the company of
former President Shehu Shagari.
Buhari, who during his trip to the UK,
met with British Prime Minister David
Cameron, will arrive onboard a British
Airways flight that is scheduled to land
in Abuja around 4 am.
Shagari who THISDAY learnt, was in the
UK on a private visit, was overthrown by
Buhari in a military coup d’etat 32 years
ago. Both men will be flying back to the
country 24 hours before Buhari’s
inauguration as Nigeria’s fifth
democratically elected president.
Shagari, between October 1, 1979 and
December 31, 1983, was Nigeria’s first
democratically elected president.
Buhari had departed the country last
Friday in the company of two of his
close aides, ostensibly to get away from
the pressure that had been brought to
bear on him by members of his party
the All Progressives Congress (APC),
state governors and varied interest
groups who had laid siege on him in
recent weeks for posts in his
government.
He was said to have decided to get
some rest ahead of the inauguration
before plunging into the arduous task of
running the country.
However, his trip, which he embarked
upon without the knowledge of the
leadership of the APC, has caused
disquiet among its chieftains, as it was
the first clear signal that the president-
elect is a man of independent thinking
determined to do things his way.
Buhari in recent days has also made it
known that the governors will have no
say in determining the members of his
cabinet, making it abundantly clear to
them after they had submitted their
ministerial lists, that he would have no
say on who their commissioners should
be.
