Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says the recovery of President Muhammadu Buhari symbolises the recovery of Nigeria.

The president returned to the country on Saturday after spending over 100 days in London, attending to his health.

Osinbajo, who has been the acting president since May 7, when president Buhari left for London, expressed happiness with the return of his boss. He said: ”The message to Nigerians is that first the recovery and the recuperation of the president is in some sense symbolic of the recovery of Nigeria.

”Nigeria is going to recover. We are on the path to sure economic recovery.

”This is a good sign, it is an excellent sign that our country is on the right path.

”There is great hope, there is great excitement and we are going to make it as a nation and as a people.
