Former President, Muhammadu Buhari has been receiving medical treatment in London since April, according to multiple family sources.
What was initially planned as a routine medical check-up turned into a full-scale admission after Buhari fell ill. The specific nature of Buhari's illness and the hospital where he is being treated have not been publicly disclosed by family members.
Garba Shehu, Buhari's longtime spokesperson, confirmed the development and assured Nigerians that the former president is responding well to treatment.
"Following your inquiry, I wish to state as follows: It is true that the former president, Muhammadu Buhari, is unwell. He has been receiving treatment in the UK.
“You would recall he made it known that he was going for his annual medical check-up. He became ill there, but I am happy to announce to you that he is doing well in his recovery while receiving treatment. We pray for his healthy recovery,” he told the media.
Buhari has a history of prolonged medical check-ups overseas during his presidency, with London being his preferred destination. He has made several trips to London for various medical treatments, including a 50-day stay in June 2016 and a 104-day stay in May 2017.
