“While away, the Vice President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, will perform the functions of the Office of the President”.

Vice President Osinbajo, who should oversees the affairs of state is currently in Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Summit, and is expected back in the country on Friday.

The President is expected to resume work on February 6, 2017.

Adesina said President Buhari would also undergo routine medical check-ups during the 18 days vacation.
