Buhari Jets Off To London With Diezani On Board

Embattled Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke,
today booked herself on a British Airways flight to London with
Nigeria's President-Elect, Muhammad Buhari.

According to SaharaReporters, Buhari was said on an unscheduled trip.
Diezani had been billed to travel to the UK next week Tuesday
according to a source, however upon learning that Buhari was traveling
to London, she asked the airline to book her on the same flight as
Buhari so that she could have a chance to discuss directly with the
President-Elect. The British Airways flight departed Abuja this
morning at 9:00am Nigerian time.

Several aides and close associates of Buhari said they were surprised
to learn of the trip since they were with him till 7PM last night
shortly after he arrived from his hometown, Duara.

A family source told SaharaReporters that Buhari was traveling to
London for the weekend and is expected back in Nigeria on Tuesday in
time for the swearing in ceremonies.
