Acting President Yemi Osinbajo has said he met President Muhammadu Buhari in stable health when he visited London on Tuesday, adding that President Buhari is “recuperating very well and he will be back in the country soon”.
Speaking with State House correspondents on Wednesday before the Federal Executive Council meeting (FEC), he said, “he is in very high spirit, he is recuperating very well and we had a very long conversation, we spoke for well over an hour and his humour is all there. He is doing well and he is recuperating fast.”
On when Buhari should be expected back in the country, he said: “I think very very shortly. Very shortly. I think we should really expect him back very shortly. Like I said he is recuperating very fast and he is doing very very well.”
Osinbajo left Nigeria after presiding over the quarterly presidential business forum at the presidential villa in Abuja on Tuesday.
He returned in time for the weekly federal executive council meeting.
President Muhammadu Buhari has been out of the country on a medical vacation since May 7.
