President Muhammadu Buhari has spoken to Nigerians after arriving London for a follow-up medical checkup.

While assuring Nigerians that all is well, the President said he has confidence that Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo will run government affairs smoothly, despite his indefinite absence.

“As I noted earlier, I have absolute confidence that government will continue to run smoothly while I’m away. God bless the Federal Republic,” he tweeted via his @MBuhari handle.

Buhari left the country Sunday night for further medical check-ups in the UK, after meeting the 82 released Chibok girls in Aso Villa amid fresh concerns about his health.

He officially handed over the reins of power to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo. The duration for his stay abroad is yet unknown.
