During his stay at the Abuja House in London for medical attention, his wife Aisha Buhari, and several other dignitaries came to visit him.
The dignitaries include Speakers of the Senate, Dr. Bukola Saraki, Hon. Yakubu Dogara, governors of Zamfara State, Abdulaziz Yari; Ebonyi State, David Umahi; Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi, and Akwa Ibom State, Udom Emmanuel.
The other governors are Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State, Samuel Ortom of Benue State, and Kashim Shettima of Borno State.
Also, a delegation of All Progressives Congress (APC) governors who recently visited the President said he was in high spirits and hasn’t lost any bit of his sense of humour.
The leader of the APC Governors, Mr. Rochas Okorocha said the President assured Nigerians not to worry at all, adding that he would be back as soon as the doctors give him the green light.
Among the delegation were Governors Umaru Tanko Al-Makura of Nasarawa; Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna; Yahaya Bello of Kogi; and APC National Chairman, Chief John Oyegun.
Just recently the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, on Friday, paid a personal visit to the President, Muhammadu Buhari at his residence in London.
The Archbishop said he was delighted to see the President’s rapid recovery following his health challenges and promised to continue praying for him as well as Nigeria.
On his part, President Buhari thanked Mr. Welby for always standing by him at critical times and wished him God’s continuous grace in his spiritual duty.
On March 9, 2017, the Archbishop paid the President a visit, making this one the second since his trip to London where he went to attend to his health.
On Friday, August 19, 2017, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, visited President Muhammadu Buhari at the Abuja House in London.
