Presidential candidate of Nigeria's opposition All Progressives Congress (APC), Muhammadu Buhari today arrived Nigeria after a two-week trip to the United Kingdom.
Addressing the mammoth crowd that had come to receive him, buhari who arrived at about 5.40am aboard a British Airways flight, said his rumored ill-health was unfounded, just as he added that he is physically and mentally fit.
According to Buhari, "I merely took some time off my campaign ahead of the March 28 polls to get some rest. I just went off for a couple of weeks to rest. That’s all I did."
Buhari who also did not see anything wrong in him seeking any medical attention in the United Kingdom, argued that, "What is wrong for me to go the hospital?
"Am I not here now? Aren’t you seeing me? Are you seeing a sick man? I went to Chatham House. I read an address and there was a question and answer session, that’s all."
It would be recalled that Buhari had left Nigeria on Thursday, February 19, 2015 for London.
