President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday met with a former Interim National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress, Chief Bisi Akande; and the party’s national leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

According to photographs released by the Presidency, the meeting took place inside the Abuja House, London, United Kingdom.

The photographs were posted on the Presidency’s official Twitter handle, NGRPresident.

Tinubu Akande were decked in a navy blue kaftan while Buhari was dressed in a brown robe.

While the three of them were seen seated and discussing in one of the photographs, Buhari was captured while seeing his guests off in the second one.

Buhari is currently in London where he has been since he started his vacation on January 19.

Although he was initially billed to resume work on Monday, the President wrote to the National Assembly notifying the federal lawmakers of his decision to extend the vacation.

He had attributed the extension to the need for him to stay back and get results of some medical tests recommended by his doctors.

Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo has been performing the duties of the President in acting capacity since Buhari left.

Reports however have it that the President is expected back in the country this weekend.
