The Minister of Communications,
Barrister Abdul-Raheem Adebayo Shittu has declared that the return of President
Muhammadu Buhari from his medical vacation in London has brought stability,
happiness and joy to Nigerians.
Shittu, who addressed journalists
shortly after he observed this year’s Eld-Kabir prayers along with other Muslim
Ummah in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital on Friday stated that it would have been
another story “if the President has not recovered fully enough to come back to
Nigeria”.
He said it had shown that the
prayers of Nigerians for the safe return of the President was answered.
Shittu said “number one, we
should thank Almighty Allah that he Has made it possible for our dear President
to come and celebrate Eld in Nigeria.
“I know that a lot of Nigerians
have been praying over the last few months urging Almighty Allah for his speedy
recovery and we thank God that, that prayer has been answered.
“That has certainly brought a lot
of serenity, a lot of stability, a lot of happiness and joy to the faces of
Nigerians. It would have been a different story if the President has not yet
recovered fully enough to come back.”
Shittu then urged Nigerians to
continue praying to God for their leaders.
“Secondly, we should continue to
pray for this government, certainly our President needs prayers in the sense
that is the one President you can trust, Nigerians can trust or can entrust
their common wealth.
“He is the President who is not
greedy, he is one who will not steal public money, he is the one President that
can manage the resources.
“I will also use this opportunity
to say that Nigerians should thank the Vice President who has been acting in
the absence of the President; he stablized the polity and he did well.”
