Nigeria's first lady returns to Abuja, Buhari still expected

The wife of Nigeria’s president, Aisha
Buhari has jetted back to the country
on Saturday amid speculation over
Buhari’s health.
Local media reported that after having
stayed with Buhari for a short while in
London, she went to the kingdom of
Saudi Arabia where she performed
Umrah (Lesser Hajj).
Upon her return to Abuja, she told
Nigerians to stay put and pray for
President Buhari who is seeking medical
help in the United Kingdom.
I want to use this
opportunity to thank all
Nigerians for the goodwill
and support for my husband
and Nigeria in general ”
“I thank God for a journey mercy, I
prayed for Nigeria and Nigerian leaders
and we should not relent in prayers and
good deed. I want to use this
opportunity to thank all Nigerians for
the goodwill and support for my
husband and Nigeria in general,” she
said.

has raised speculations over his health.
Many have cast doubt over the recently
released images of Buhari and other
leaders who visited him in the UK. The
images released by the Presidency to
show Buhari’s condition as not-severe
made no impact as Nigerians on twitter
reacted vigorously.
