The President of the Nigerian Senate, Godswill Akpabio, has returned to the country after a brief vacation in London.
Upon his return, he dismissed rumours that he was critically ill and had been hospitalised in the United Kingdom.
Senator Akpabio had earlier attended the sixth World Conference of Speakers of Parliament in Geneva, held between 29th and 31st of July 2025, before proceeding to London for a short break.
The Senate president arrived at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, at about 4:00 a.m. on Monday, where he was received at the presidential wing by senators, aides, and supporters from different walks of life.
Speaking with journalists on arrival, Akpabio assured Nigerians of stronger parliamentary engagements when the Senate resumes.
“There’s nothing like such. I’m fit as a fiddle. I only stopped over in London for a short vacation,” Akpabio said.
