Spokesman Laolu Akande, announced Osinbajo’s arrival in a tweet this morning. He said the acting President will be presiding over a Federal Executive Council meeting at 11am today.

It means the briefing promised about the visit would have to wait for now.

Akande had announced Tuesday night that the Acting President would jet to London to see his boss, who had gone on medical vacation since 7 May.

In London, Osinbajo reportedly spent one hour at the Abuja House, where President has been staying since his arrival in the British capital on 8 May.

Osinbajo did not speak to newsmen in London, but Akande tweeted later that the meeting was good and that more information will be shared later.
