ABUJA, 31 March, 2021 (TON): The government’s announcement on President Muhammadu Buhari travel to London on Tuesday for a routine medical check-up infuriated the Nigerians.

A statement from the presidential spokesperson Femi Adesina did not reveal Buhari’s condition but assured Nigerians that the president will return home in the second week of April.

Many Nigerians expressed their dismay following Buhari’s trips to the UK to seek medical care.

Some have called it a waste of taxpayers’ money while some criticized the government’s failure to build world-class hospitals in Nigeria.

A human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore, has advised Nigerians in the United Kingdom to occupy the London hospital where Buhari plans to have a medical checkup.

Buhari has visited London for medical reasons since he was first inaugurated President on 29 May, 2015, later in 2016 where he spent 104 days in 2017 after a long medical visit in London.
