Tinubu returns to Nigeria after three months medical trip to London

The National Leader of All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, on Friday night, returned to Nigeria after spending over three months in London, the United Kingdom.

Newsflash Nigeria gathered that the former Lagos governor arrived at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos State on Friday night.

He was received by Lagos State governor, Babatunde Sanwo-Olu.

He arrived on a Falcon jet with registration number CP-CBT.

Tinubu’s health has been a subject of controversy of late. The two-term Lagos governor was reported to have undergone knee surgery in London.

At least over 30 politicians had visited him in London in the last three months.

Notably amongst the politicians including President Muhammadu Buhari; Governors Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Lagos), Umar Ganduje (Kano), Dapo Abiodun (Ogun), Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti), and Rotimi Akeredolu (Ondo).

Also, members of the House of Representatives from the north led by Deputy Speaker, Ahmed Wase, visited the APC chieftain last week and endorsed his candidacy for the 2023 presidency.
