Buhari's Son Not Flown Abroad

The Presidency has described the story as untrue reports that Yusuf Buhari, a son of President Muhammadu Buhari, was flown abroad this morning for medical attention.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu, said this in a text message sent out few minutes ago.
"That is not true, pls," the presidential spokesman said.

Yusuf had a bike accident Tuesday night around Gwarimpa in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
Yusuf broke a limb and had an injury to the head as a result.

Shehu had said in a statement Wednesday Yusuf had undergone surgery at a clinic in Abuja and was in a stable condition.
