Mohammed made this known on Thursday, June 15, when he appeared on Channels Television show, Politics Today.
According
to him, President Buhari made it clear when he was leaving, that the
length of his stay would be determined by his doctors.
Responding to a question on when Nigerians are expected to have Buhari back into the country, Mohammed said: "I
think the president made it clear when he was leaving that the length
of his stay would be determined by his doctors. The most authentic news
we have so far is from the wife of the president who recently came back
from London to disclose that the president is recovering very fast. That
is the best we can say for now."
On if he has been able to speak to the president since he left, the minister said: "No I don't have to."
On if the wife of the president, Aisha Buhari saw her husband when she went to London, Mohammed said: "I
have no reason to doubt the wife of the president. If the wife of the
president comes out to say that 'I saw my husband and he is doing very
well', then I have no reason to doubt her."
President Buhari departed for London, UK for medical treatment on Sunday, May 7, shortly after he received the 82 released Chibok girls.
Before his departure, the president was rarely seen in public for a while, fuelling speculation about his state of health.
