President Buhari's Aide Rubbishes Reports Over His London Medical Trip...

The spokesman for President Muhammadu Buhari has denied reports that the president had cancelled a planned medical visit to the UK. The story, which was first reported by Sahara Reporters, quoted unnamed presidential sources saying that an advance party had already left for London before Mr Buhari decided to call off the visit.

It added that the president's doctors would travel instead to Nigeria to administer treatment there.

Presidential spokesman Garba Shehu told the BBC:

"It is false news. We are not aware of the reported advance movements. The last time the president spoke about this, he said he would return to his doctors after some time. We are not aware that this has changed."

Mr Buhari returned from London on 10 March, after taking seven weeks of medical leave in the UK for an undisclosed illness.
