Over one week since he appeared at the Chatham house event APC's Presidential candidate Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (Retired) is expected back in Nigeria over the weekend. According to reports, arrangements have reached advanced stage to receive him on Friday.
It was gathered in Abuja on Wednesday, that while some of his supporters are pushing for a carnival-like reception for the general, others are angling for a less flambuoyant approach in line with his well-known penchant for modesty.
PUNCH learnt that while a final decision had yet to be taken, events lined up for his return are still being kept a secret.
However, the APC is not leaving anything to chance as it is going ahead with preparations for its grand finale rally in Abuja.
The rally, which was earlier scheduled to hold on January 29, had to be postponed indefinitely following the shift of the date of the elections by six weeks.
When contacted, the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, confirmed that the party’s presidential candidate would be back in the country at the weekend.
Mohammed, who spoke in a telephone interview with The PUNCH in Abuja, said, “I spoke with him (Buhari) this morning (Wednesday), he will be back in the country God willing this weekend.”
As to the planned grand finale of the party’s presidential campaign rallies, he said, “I cannot confirm the exact date yet because we have to meet. It is when we meet and a decision is taken that it will be announced.”
