Nigeria’s Buhari Recovering in U.K., Will Return Soon, Wife Says
LAGOS (Capital Markets in Africa) – Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari is recovering fast from an undisclosed ailment while on medical leave in the U.K. and preparing to return to the West African nation, according to his wife.
Buhari, who has been abroad for almost a month, will be back “soon” in Nigeria, the office of Aisha Buhari said in an emailed statement Tuesday, without giving further details. Vice President Yemi Osinbajo serves as acting leader in his absence.
