Buhari was originally meant to spend 10 days on leave but he wrote the Senate on February 5 to extend his vacation indefinitely.

The president said at the time that he would not be able to return until his doctors ruled out certain factors.

Upon his return, the president confessed that he had never been so sick in his entire life.

Meanwhile, Buhari has said that he might have to return to London for follow-up treatment in a matter of weeks.
