UPDATED: Buhari Flown Abroad For Medical Check-up

The presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress, Maj.Gen Muhammadu Buhari has been flown out of the country to the United Kingdom for medical check-up aboard a British Airways plane.

It was gathered from a reliable source that he travelled out yesterday morning around 9 am.

Details around his health have remained sketchy, but it is rumoured he has gone to treat a nagging health condition – prostate cancer.

It was also learnt that as a result of the hectic political campaigns he embarked throughout the nation, he has not been able to attend to his regular monthly medical check-up abroad.

However, a statement from his campaign office has debunked the story and said Buhari had gone on a short working visit to the United Kingdom
The statement reads, “in the course of this visit, Buhari would hold meetings with key members of the British political establishment and interact with some global institutions with stakeholder interest in the affairs of Nigeria.

The Director of Media and Publicity, for the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, Malam Garba Shehu, said, “General Buhari will hopefully give a talk at the prestigious foreign policy hub, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, Chatham House in London.”
