Recall that President Buhari, who travelled on a medical vacation, has been in the UK for no fewer than 24 days.
His long vacation had provoked speculations from Nigerians at home and abroad, who stated that the president was dead after he denied pleas to address the nation from the UK.
The telephone conversation will however clear doubts on the president true state of health.
