The president is expected to return to Nigeria after his transit to London.
However, the presidency has declined to state if Buhari’s trip is medically related.
Presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu, said he cannot confirm if the president was going to see his doctors in London.
‘’I cannot confirm to you. I am in Abuja right now I cannot speak on what I don’t know, nobody has communicated with me,” he told Premium Times on Thursday, September 21, in a telephone conversation.

The last time Buhari departed for London on medical leave, he spent 105 days receiving treatment.
His absence led to protests by some Nigerians who called for the president to resign on health grounds.
But calls for the president’s resignation was dismissed by the presidency and the members of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Buhari had arrived New York on Sunday, September 17, to meet with other world leaders at the 72nd session of United Nations General Assembly where he addressed world leaders.
