President Muhammadu Buhari on Saturday said God had answered Nigerians’ prayers for his health.
Buhari said this in his condolences delivered by the Minister of Interior, Abdulrahman Dambassau, to the family of a prominent Kano State businessman Alhaji Audu Adahama as well as the government and the people of the state.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, who accompanied the minister, said Buhari thanked the people of the state for their profuse prayers and good wishes in the period he was away for treatment in London.
Shehu quoted the president as saying: “Allah has accepted your prayers and we are thankful to you for joining other Nigerians in saying those prayers for me and the nation. On behalf of my family, the government and the people of the entire country, please accept our heartfelt condolences.”
President Buhari, according to Shehu, described the death of the ex-customs officer and community leader as a painful loss.
