In his current trip, Buhari who went to the UK for “a summit and scheduled medical follow-up” is expected to be back by next week which makes it over 200 days.

President Muhammadu Buhari’s incessant travels to the United Kingdom for medical treatment have taken a total 200 days or about seven months since he assumed office in May 2015. Buhari’s penchant for foreign medical help is in stark contrast with the ongoing, biting doctors’ strike in Nigeria which has paralysed government hospitals and put the lives of millions of ailing Nigerians in the balance.

SaharaReporters had on April 1 reported that Buhari spent over 193 days on medical leave in the United Kingdom since he assumed office in 2015. 1. February 5, 2016 to February 10, 2016: Buhari took a six-day vacation in the United Kingdom, saying that his doctors lived in England. 4. May 7, 2017: Buhari embarked on a trip to London for another medical vacation. He returned after 104 days on August 19 but could not resume work because rats had reportedly damaged furniture in his office.5. May 8, 2018: Buhari went to London for a four-day “medical review.” The president returned on May 11, 2018.

In summary, Buhari spent 19 days in 2016, 155 days in 2017, and four days in 2018 getting treatment in the UK.
