President Muhammadu Buhari is expected to arrive in Nigeria Friday evening, sources close to the presidency have told SaharaReporters.
Buhari had on July 26 travelled to London, United Kingdom to participate in the Global Education Summit on Financing Global Partnership for Education (GPE) 2021-2025 and see his doctors.
This came a few days after SaharaReporters exposed how the visit was planned ‘secretly’ to avoid rampage or any ‘embarrassing protest’ against the Nigerian President in London.

“He is on his way, the presidential flight took off from Stansted Airport, London, about an hour ago,” the source said.
Further information available to SaharaReporters shows the President left London at exactly 12.04pm on Nigerian Air Force 1.
On Thursday, the President visited former Lagos State Governor and National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, who is recuperating after a second surgery in the United Kingdom.
