I am ready to return home, only waiting for my doctors’ order- Buhari 

President Muhammadu Buhari has disclosed that his health has tremendously improved but he is only waiting for his doctors to give the green light before he returns home.

In a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, the President said he wishes to return to Nigeria but he has to abide by his doctor’s orders.

“The President spoke while receiving the presidential media team, and the Senior Special Assistant on Diaspora Matters, at Abuja House, London, on Saturday.

“Alhaji Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information and Culture, led the visiting team, accompanied by Mr Femi Adesina, Special Adviser on Media and Publicity; Mallam Garba Shehu, Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, and Lauretta Onochie, Personal Assistant on Digital/Online Media. Also there was Mrs Abike Dabiri-Erewa, Senior Special Assistant on Diaspora Matters,” Femi Adesina said in the statement.

Adesina also quoted the president as saying that he feels he could go home

“but the doctors are in charge. I’ve now learnt to obey orders, rather than be obeyed.”

“On how he felt hearing different conjectures about his health, an amused President Buhari said he followed events at home closely, lauding Nigerian television stations, and the media generally, for keeping him informed.

“When told that prayers were going on fervently for him, not only in Nigeria, but all over Africa, and round the world, a delighted President said: “What we did in The Gambia early this year fetched us a lot of goodwill on the African continent. It gave us a lot of latitude. I thank all those who are praying. May God reward them.”
