President Muhammadu Buhari has asked Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo to continue in acting capacity while he keeps resting.

Buhari returned to the country on Friday morning after a medical vacation in the UK.

Shortly after his arrival, he met with top government officials at the first lady conference room of the presidential villa in Abuja.

Abba Kyari, chief of staff to the president; Babagana Monguno, national security adviser; Lawal Daura, director-general of the Department of State Services (DSS) and Femi Adesina, presidential spokesman; were among those who attended the meeting.

Abdullahi Ganduje, governor of Kano state, and Abdulaziz Yari, his Zamfara state counterpart, also attended.

Buhari expressed gratitude to all those who prayed for him during his time in London, and asked for more prayers.

He said he was feeling better, but still needed to rest.

He retired into his residence at the end of the meeting.

Buhari left the country on January 19, after transmitting a letter to the national assembly that he was going on a 10-day vacation.

He told the lawmakers that he had handed over to Osinbajo, who was in Davos, Switzerland for the World Economic Forum, at the time.

Osinbajo had to cut short his trip to take over the responsibilities.

Buhari was expected back in the country on February 5, but he extended his vacation indefinitely, saying he was awaiting results of some medical tests.

Two weeks after, Adesina said the results of the tests showed his principal needed a longer period of rest.

But on Sunday, Buhari hinted that his the end of his medical vacation was near.

The president had told Yahaya Bello, governor of Kogi state, that he would soon to the country to continue his assignment of “providing purposeful leadership for the nation”.

Omo! See viewers for thread!



I hope Fayose can issue a formal apology for his wanton stupidity.

Welcome home Mr President.

Take your time and recuperate. The rigours of that office is beyond what you can handle in your present state. Osinbajo, your side kick and alter-ego, has been holding fort pretty well. You've got absolutely nothing to worry about.

Welcome Mr President..

I'm not "excited" by his coming back.

Of course, my desire is for him to come back and assume his official duty post, but MOST IMPORTANTLY, I desire to see my president hale and hearty.

Baba isn't well and from the pictures I've seen so far, he doesn't seem to be getting better. He needs all the time he can get to recuperate and I hope some power hungry vultures around him would allow him to do so in peace and not drag him to his untimely death.

I just hate it when ignorant kids jump into my mentions to flaunt their stupidity.

nwabobo:
Truth is, the man is not well enough and may never regain full fitness for the rigours of the office but the cabal had to bring him in to secure their ground.

VirginFinder:
Now that he has made the statement, he will be free to move in and out of the country as he health demands and stay as long as he wishes while he remains president.
He's okay communicating only with Osinbajo and giving him directives where necessary while Osinbajo relates with Nigerians.

What a smart man!

Sai Buhari!!

Here are some of the comments i made earlier:




Exactly what i prayed for is what Baba has done and I'd be happy if this turns out to be true!

The only people we know won't be happy today, regardless of turn of events, are perpetually pained and foolish LiePob nonentities.
