President Muhammadu Buhari arrived the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja around 5:30pm on Sunday, after spending 13 days in the United Kingdom.
Buhari left the country on June 6, for a 10-day vacation, during which he was expected to see his doctors for an ear infection.
He was due to be back on Thursday but Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo said the president decided to extend his trip by four days.
“The president will be back on Sunday. I spoke with him yesterday evening and I think it is just the best that he takes the weekend off. He will certainly be back on Sunday,” Osinbajo had told state house correspondents.
Buhari was received by members of the federal executive council, service chiefs, and some governors.
While on vacation in London, the president hosted dignitaries such as: Atiku Abubakar, including former vice-president; Bola Tinubu, former governor of Lagos state; and Sikiru Adetona 11, awujale of Ijebuland.
Others were Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury, and Idowu Fearon, archbishop and secretary-general of Anglican Communion.
