Ag. President, others receive Buhari in Presidential Villa

President Muhammad Buhari has arrived at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, after a successful medical vacation in London.

Newsverge reports that the presidential chopper carrying the president from Kaduna landed at about 8.36 a.m.

The presidential plane that brought him from London earlier landed at the Nigeria Air Force base Kaduna at about 7.47 a.m.

The president was received on arrival at the villa by Acting President Yemi Osinbajo, cabinet ministers, service chiefs and Inspector General of Police Ibrahim Idris.

Buhari left the country on Jan. 17 on a 10-day vacation which he said he would also use to have a medical check-up.
