President Muhammadu Buhari has finally returned to his main office inside the Presidential Villa, Abuja, about 81 days after he returned to the country from his medical trip to London, United Kingdom.
Buhari who arrived the country on August 19 to a wild jubilation by Nigerians after spending over 100 days abroad has been operating from an office located inside his official residence and another one located inside the Presidential Banquet Hall.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, had said the President’s office needed renovation because of its devastation by rodents during his long period of absence.
PUNCH gathered that Buhari on Thursday, November 9, entered the office for the first time since he returned to the country.
The President inaugurated the Armed Forces Council inside one of the halls located inside the main office.
