Nigeria - President Muhammadu Buhari has extended his appreciation to Nigerians for their goodwill and prayer, saying his condition has improved.
Buhari, who spoke for about three minutes on phone, with Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, while a prayer session was going on at the state Government House, said he is feeling better.
“Alhamdulillah (all praise be to Allah),” he said when Ganduje enquired “how are you feeling now Your Excellency?”
During the prayer session, which was broadcast live by local radio stations in Kano, Ganduje told the President that Islamic scholars and Imams in Kano are praying for his speedy recovery.
To this, the President remarked “Maa shaa Allah,” meaning, “God willed it,” an Arabic phrase used to show appreciation for a person or happening and is evoked upon hearing of good news.
President Buhari expressed the hope that Allah will accept the prayers and asked the governor to extend his best wishes to the Islamic scholars.
Governor Ganduje, who was highly elated, remarked that from the voice of the President, his health has greatly improved and expressed the hope that the Nigerian leader would get well soon.
The governor told the President that there are over 7, 000 Juma’at mosques in Kano and that he has directed them to pray for him.
Ganduje enjoined Nigerians to continue to pray for the well-being of the President and the success of his administration.
“We prayed for Buhari to win and he won. It is now mandatory on us to rally round his government and pray for his well-being,” Ganduje remarked.
The prayers session, which brought together about 300 Imams and Islamic leaders from all Islamic denominations across the state, was attended by the state deputy governor, Prof. Hafiz Abubakar, the Chief Imam of Kano, Prof. M.S. Zahraddeen, the state Commissioner of Police, Rabi’u Yusuf, legislators and former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Ghali Umar Na’abba.
