Former presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic
Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, has felicitated with President Muhammadu Buhari on
his 79th birthday.
Atiku prayed for good health and vitality for President
Buhari.
In a tweet on Friday, the former Vice President wrote: “A
very hearty birthday felicitation to President @MBuhari. I pray that Almighty
Allah continues to bless you with good health and vitality.”
Buhari, who turned 79 years old today, celebrated his
birthday in Istanbul, Turkey, where he is to participate in the 3rd
Turkey-Africa Partnership Summit, hosted by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
A statement by Buhari’s spokesman, Garba Shehu, said the
President cut his 79th birthday cake moulded in national colours,
green-white-green to start the day, before going on to chair a planning meeting
with officials in his delegation and thereafter drove to the Dolmabahce Palace
for a meeting with his Turkish counterpart, Erdogan.
Shehu said in response to the tribute on the occasion on
behalf of the ministers and the rest of the delegation rendered by the Minister
of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, the president said he will put in his
best for Nigeria until the last day of his administration in 2023.
Buhari had also pledged to hand over to a successor and
return to his farm to tender crops and livestock, at the end of his tenure.
