I AM TRULY PROUD OF OUR CONNECTION – BUHARI HONORS TINUBU ON HIS BIRTHDAY
Former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari has extended his birthday wishes to President Bola Tinubu on March 29.
In a statement released by his spokesman, Garba Shehu, on Saturday, Buhari expressed pride in his association with Tinubu and conveyed his family’s prayers for Tinubu’s long life, good health, and a successful tenure.
“When we pray for our leaders, we are praying for ourselves and the nation. We owe this to ourselves and the nation,” Buhari said to Tinubu.
“No doubt, the annals of the country will not be complete without mentioning and recognizing the varied and numerous roles of President Tinubu as an entrepreneur, a party stalwart, a staunch activist, a party organizer, a party builder, a reliable ally, and a serial winner of democratic elections. I am truly proud of my association with the Asiwaju.
“When Nigerians handed the baton of leadership to the APC in 2015, it was a mandate to lay the foundation for a new Nigeria where the poor get opportunities for a better future, and I am glad that the vision is not lost. It was a victory for all those who wish the country well.”
Buhari extended his best wishes to the president, his family, and the nation for a successful conclusion of Ramadan and a joyous Eid celebration.
President Tinubu was born on March 29, 1952.
