The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, had in a statement penultimate Monday announced the arrival period to be the second week of April 2021.

“He is due back in the country during the second week of April 2021,” Adesina had said in the statement.

However, the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, evaded the question when asked of the date Nigerians should expect the President Buhari this week.

“So, what’s the big issue in that one?”

Lai Mohammed said the government was currently more concerned with the issue of insecurity rocking the country.
