Nigerian President Umaru Yar'Adua returns home
Nigerian President Umaru Yar'Adua has returned home after three months' treatment in Saudi Arabia, officials say, but his condition is unknown.
A plane from Jeddah landed at Abuja airport in the early hours, where an ambulance was waiting on the tarmac.
Earlier this month, Vice-President Goodluck Jonathan became acting leader as fears mounted of a power vacuum.
Mr Yar'Adua has not attended the weekly cabinet meeting, and it is unclear if he is well enough to resume duties.
The 58-year-old leader has been receiving treatment for heart and kidney problems.
An hour after Wednesday's cabinet meeting was due to begin, ministers were reportedly still waiting inside the presidency, uncertain who was to chair the session.
Acting President Jonathan then postponed it, announcing to ministers that he would hold a special briefing at 1400 (1300 GMT), Reuters news agency reported.
Analysts say there has been considerable jostling for power behind the scenes as politicians look ahead to elections due by April next year.
The BBC's Ahmed Idris says two planes arrived amid tight security at the presidential wing of Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja at about 0200 local time (0100 GMT).
Although there has been no official confirmation of Mr Yar'Adua's return, two cabinet ministers told our correspondent the president was on board one of the jets.
And Nigerian Senator Abubakar Umar Gada told the BBC's World Today: "I can confirm from credible sources the president is back. I think Nigerians will be happy to have their president back in a good shape."
Presidential adviser Emmanuel Egbogah told Reuters Mr Yar'Adua was back, but it was "doubtful" he would resume office immediately.
Not seen in public
Nigeria's ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Abdullah Aminchi, told AFP news agency Mr Yar'Adua had returned home and his condition had "improved tremendously".
Our correspondent says everyone except presidential officials was kept out of the airport.
He followed the official convoy the 40km (25 miles) into central Abuja and says there was a military presence along the whole route.
The president was flown to Jeddah after falling ill last November to be treated for pericarditis, an inflammation of the membrane protecting the heart.
He has not been seen in public since then and there has been no official report on his health condition.
On Monday, a delegation of Nigerian ministers had travelled to Saudi Arabia, apparently for an update on Mr Yar'Adua's health.
Letter
The BBC's Caroline Duffield in Abuja says in theory he is able to take up the reins of power once more by writing a letter to the National Assembly and telling them he has returned, although it is understood that no such letter has been received.
Sonala Olumhense, a columnist with Nigeria's Guardian newspaper, told the BBC's Network Africa programme he believed Mr Yar'Adua would be anxious to return to work, even if only semi-recovered.
"There seems to be on his part or on the part of the people around him the consciousness that power is slipping away from them and they want it back," he said.
In Mr Yar'Adua's absence, acting President Jonathan has been reshuffling ministers, pledging to tackle power shortages and forging ahead with an amnesty for militants in the oil-rich Niger Delta.
The amnesty was seen as Mr Yar'Adua's major achievement since coming to power in 2007, but it had been jeopardised by his absence.

Caroline Duffield, BBC News, Abuja
For President Yar'Adua's political future, it is critical the people do see him, and soon.
He and his circle have suffered political damage and a massive loss of trust, within the country, within parliament, and within their own party.
In his absence, many senior cabinet ministers - including the information minister and the foreign minister - were locked out of decision-making.
It created an atmosphere in which people were uncertain whether the president was even alive.
Mr Yar'Adua's allies will want executive powers transferred back to him, but there are cabinet splits.
Acting President Goodluck Jonathan's supporters have been manoeuvring to try to formalise his position.

呵呵，不好意思，我也发错了，把逗号点错位置了。
我现在在夜班，通过手机只能发些简短内容。长的不太容易传送，而且怕输入或编辑错误过了一小时就不能纠正了，所以等上电脑了继续吧。
也不知怎么搞的，深度思考时候，输入错误的几率大大增加，时时还有所想和所输入不完全一致我情形。
好在一直有复查的习惯，这样隔了不断时间倒是能发现错误。
不过，现在限制在一小时之内才可以修改，却是大大限制了找出错误的可能性了。在短期内相同思绪过程中找出错误的正确率是会打折扣的，这样过了一小时仍会发现有错误，也就无法修改了。这样一来，反倒是客观上对看的人更不尊重了。
为此，我也在这个版块呼吁过，却没引起注意。我不知道他们究竟是怎么想的，更不知道他们是不是有心理学方面的普遍知识和相关意识，以至于会做出这样下策的权限设置。
学识的探讨和研究也是讲究灵感的。一个想法找到合适的语言表达有时是一瞬间的，往往也是稍纵即逝的。
版块的这样做法真是削足适履了。 狮子鸡，我有点事情，明天将我的感觉贴出来。
