President Muhammadu Buhari is leaving Nigeria for London on Monday for a medical check-up following which he will participate in the Global Education Summit on Financing Global Partnership for Education 2021-2025.

The trip out of Nigeria by President Buhari was contained in a statement by the president’s media adviser, Femi Adesina.

Buhari is expected to be back in Nigeria by the second week of August 2021.

The statement read, “President Muhammadu Buhari will today Monday July 26, 2021, travel to the United Kingdom to participate in the Global Education Summit on Financing Global Partnership for Education (GPE) 2021-2025.

Continuing on what Buhari will do while he is out of Nigeria, he said:

“The Summit, which will be co-hosted by the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Boris Johnson, and the President of Kenya, Uhuru Kenyatta, will bring together Heads of State and Government as well as stakeholders and youth leaders, and provide a platform for partners to chart a way forward towards transforming education systems in partner countries, through exchange of best practices.

“It will also offer the opportunity for leaders to make 5-year pledges to support GPE’s work to help transform education systems in up to 90 countries and territories.

“Deliberations at the Summit will focus on: The Power of Education –A Conversation between Global Champions; Transforming Education for Girls; Financing for Impact and Recovery and; What Now? Priorities for Transforming Education in the Coming Five Years, among others.”

Buhari was expected to leave Nigeria for a medical check-up in London last month but the trip was cancelled at the last minute.

The trip out of Abuja, Nigeria follows a six-day stay in Daura, Katsina State where he spent the Sallah holidays.
