According to Saraki, the president is in good spirits and even teased him about working late.
“Happy to have spoken with @NGRPresident @MBuhari tonight. He was in good spirits and joked about my working late into the night, as usual,” Saraki tweeted.
Concerns about the president’s health arose in January after he left the country for a 10-day medical vacation.
