The president's office had scheduled the two-day visit, where he was
to commission completed projects across the state.

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo will now represent Mr. Buhari at a
low-profile event, Mr. Shehu said.

He said most projects lined up for commissioning during Mr. Buhari's
visit will now be placed on hold until after the Ramadan.

"The president is faced with scheduling difficulties difficulties and
that is the reason for the postponement," Mr. Shehu said.
