Recently I noted that it takes more than 5 min without completely shutdown which usually takes a few sec.

I usually long press the power button to force shut down & sometimes I just leave it to shut down eventually.

Is there something I can do to rectify the problem? Please help.

Regards, Frank

Some other people have found this to be caused by the CUPS software (related to remote printers) here: Slow shutdown on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Stopping thermal daemon/running fit make remote CUPS printers)

If that's what the problem is for you too, the short answer is:

sudo systemctl disable cups-browsed.service
