The return of President Muhammadu Buhari is generating serious controversy after it was reported that he arrived the country around 4am.

The reported return of President Muhammadu Buhari to Nigeria 51 days after he left the country for medical vacation has been overshadowed by controversy.

According to online sources, the President arrived Kaduna Airport on Friday at 7:40am and was choppered to Abuja, but some sources revealed that government officials and security chiefs are still awaiting President Buhari in Kaduna.

Punch reported that the President was yet to arrive the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

Yesterday, Buhari's Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, disclosed the President’s imminent return in a statement on Thursday.

The three-paragraph statement read, “President Muhammadu Buhari is expected to return to the country tomorrow, Friday, March 10, 2017 (today).

“The President left the country on January 19, 2017 for a vacation, during which he had routine medical check-ups. The holiday was extended based on doctors’ recommendation for further tests and rest.

“President Buhari expresses appreciation to teeming Nigerians from across the country, and beyond, who had prayed fervently for him, and also sent their good wishes."

Also, the fact that no picture of Buhari arriving the country as was the case previously has left Nigerians wondering what could have gone wrong this time.
