PRESIDENT Macky Sall of Senegal has prayed for the good health of President Buhari, thanking him for his intervention in The Gambia to help President Adama Barow to office.
Recall that former President Yahya Jammeh had baulked at handing over power to Adama Barrow, winner of an election held last December, but ECOWAS leaders, under the inspiration of President Buhari, insisted Jammeh must quit at the expiration of his term in January. He did, rather involuntarily.
According to a statement issued by Special Adviser to the president on media and publicity, Femi Adesina, in Abuja on Saturday, in a communication with Buhari, described himself as President Buhari’s “younger brother,” and prayed that Allah would bestow good health and wisdom on the Nigerian leader.
“Thank you again for your support in The Gambia. May Almighty Allah give you greater health and energy to conduct the destiny of Nigeria,” the Senegalese leader said.
