President Muhammadu Buhari has on Tuesday evening returned to Abuja from Saudi Arabia.

His plane touched down at the Presidential Wing of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja from Saudi Arabia.

Top government officials were on ground to receive him at the airport.

The President had left Nigeria last Thursday to Saudi Arabia to perform the Muslim Umrah.

The visit was also to honour the invitation from King Salman Bin Abdulaziz, the ruler of Saudi Arabia and Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques to perform the Umrah.

He was accompanied by his close personal aides to the Umrah.

One of the things Buhari had done after his return was the signing of some bills into law including that of June 12 becoming a national holiday.
