NBC News Reports:
LONDON — One of the world's most populous countries has been without its leader for almost a month, and no one seems willing to explain why.
Muhammadu Buhari, the 74-year-old president of Nigeria, has been the subject of swirling rumors, conspiracy theories and downright fabrications since he flew to London on Jan 19.
This uncertainty hasn't been helped by the lack of information provided by Buhari's team.
A full 29 days after the president left, neither he nor his aides have explained exactly why he is there, nor when he plans to return.
"We will let you know when he is coming back," Buhari's special adviser, Femi Adesina, told NBC News by telephone Friday. "All of the information [about his situation] is in the public domain."
