According to Shehu, Buhari planned to stay away from national issues and politics in general to give his brain some rest in his county home but visitors kept coming in and he had to leave Nigeria for the United Kingdom.
The statement reads in part:
"It is fake, let us not discuss it or give it energy or air of publicity. This is fake news, and nothing more."
