President Muhammadu Buhari, currently on a 10-day vacation in the UK, broke his silence on Sunday, saluting the Nigerian media for performing its duties diligently.

The President, who tweeted from London on his Twitter handle @MBuhari, said he was always in touch with news from home.

Buhari, whose picture was also posted in the tweet, specifically named Channels TV as one of his favourite television stations.

He said: “Wherever I am, I keep up with news from home. Channels TV is one of my favorites. I’m proud of what the Nigerian media are achieving.”

The accompanying photo showed Buhari  on phone, relaxed on a settee with his leg spread on the table  while watching a Channels TV programme.
