Buhari jets off to London for medical check-up

President Muhammadu Buhari departed Abuja on Sunday to undergo a routine medical checkup in London.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the president had originally planned to make the trip from Nairobi, Kenya, after attending the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Year 50 meeting in that country.

Presidential spokesman Femi Adesina had said in a statement March 1 that the president would travel to London from Kenya for “routine medical examinations that will take a maximum of two weeks.”

However, the president returned to Abuja around 1 p.m. Friday before making the trip to London on Sunday.
