The special adviser to the president on media and publicity, Femi Adesina, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday March 9.

Buhari left the country on January 19, 2017, for a vacation, during which he received medical treatment for an undisclosed ailment for over 50 days.

The vacation was supposed to last for 10 days but was extended indefinitely when the president sent a letter to the National Assembly asking for more time to attend to medical issues as suggested by his doctors.

The uncertainty surrounding the president's health had fueled rumours of his death in sections of the media.

But his rumoured death was however, was dismissed by the presidency which insisted that Buhari was in good health.

During his stay in the UK, Buhari made several calls to some Nigerian dignitaries, the latest being the former Ekiti state governor, Niyi Adebayo, who he condoled over the death of his father.
