NaijaBet: We wish Buhari well and anticipate his early return

NaijaBet, one of the betting agencies domiciled in Nigeria, says Nigerians are yearning to have President Muhammadu Buhari back in the country.

Earlier, the betting agency had opened a betting option for Nigerians to make money off the ability to predict when the president will return.

But clarifying its position on the betting options about the president’s return, NaijaBet said it was only expressing the voice of the people, adding that it wishes the president well.

“We would just like to put this on record, Nigerians want their president back, we are only trying to voice the yearning of the people via the little platform we have,” NaijaBet said.

“We want to show the President & the government that the people are anxtious for his well being and anticipate his early return (hence the short window dates as betting options)”

President Muhammadu Buhari has been away from the country for 87 days on a second medical vacation in 2017. In total, the president has spent over four months in the UK in 2017.

Acting President Yemi Osinbajo assured Nigerians that the president will return to the country very soon.

The president has been seen looking quite healthy in pictures taken on a number of visits made recently by top political actors in the Nigerian state.
