President Muhammadu Buhari is expected back in Nigeria today, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Sources within the presidency say the president is likely to be in the State Capital just before nightfall.

The President departed Nigeria for the United Kingdom on July 26 to participate in the Global Education Summit on Financing Global Partnership for Education (GPE) 2021-2025.

His special media aide, Femi Adesina had issued a statement suggesting that after the event, President Buhari would spend a few days in the United Kingdom for an earlier scheduled medical check-up.
