Crowds came out to celebrate the return of President Muhammadu Buhari
Residents of Jos and Maiduguri on Friday trooped to the streets to
celebrate the return of President Muhammad Buhari to Nigeria after over a
month in London.
Bauchi Road in Jos was early on Friday besieged by jubilating
residents, causing traffic hold up and disrupting activities. Mr Kwajafa
Hassan, a resident in Jos, described the return of Buhari as the will
of God.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that some resident in
Gwange, New GRA, Damboa went into wild celebration following the news of
his return.
The President is held in very high esteem in the state following
the return of peace to the area which had been largely under the control
of Boko Haram insurgents before his assumption of office in May 2015.
Malam Isyaku Muhammad, a resident of new GRA told NAN, that the prayers of Nigerians for President Buhari was not in vain.
“The Borno people had embarked on fasting, prayers and
supplication over the president’s health when he was announced to be
sick in London.
“We believe that our prayers have been answered,” Muhammad said.
Ibrahim Bashir, who resides in Damboa road area of Maiduguri said
the President’s home coming was a huge relief after the tension over his
rumoured health.
“The return of President Buhari is worthy of celebrating; as
you know the president and his Vice President were already taking step
toward resuscitating our ailing economy.
“We need only Buhari and his VP to continue fighting corruption
and recovering all the tax payers’ money stashed away by corrupt
politicians.”
Malam Sale Bulkachuwa, another resident said “we must continue
to pray for the president for sound health to enable him continue to
fight insurgency in the country. We are so happy and our prayers remain
with the president.”
Malam Audu Sokoto, said that President Buhari remained God chosen for the people of Nigeria.
“Today I am slaughtering a N50, 000 ram to celebrate Buhari’s return,’’ he said.
Kano residents also trooped into the streets on Friday to express
their gratitude to God for the safe return of President Buhari.
President Buhari’s Aircraft landed at the Kaduna Air Force base at about 7:40am on Friday after spending over a month in the UK.
Some of the residents said that they were happy that the President returned to the country safely and in good health.
“I heard the news of his return and since then I have been very happy, because Buhari meant well for our country,” a resident Lawal Garba said.
Another resident, Mukhtar Dahiru-Rigachikun, said he had no words
to express his happiness on the safe return of President Buhari.
“I have no words to express my happiness and gratitude to God for bringing him back to the country safety and in good health.
The only thing I want to add is that Nigerians should thank God
for returning him safely and those wishing him dead should desist from
such wishful thinking,” he said.
He urged Nigerians irrespective of religious and political
inclination to continue to pray for the sustenance of peace and unity in
the country.
"Even the diehard cynics know that Buhari has done well in
tackling the security challenges which bedeviled the country especially
in the Northeast region,” he said.
Also commenting, Malam Bala Confirm, expressed happiness on the
safe return of the President and advised Nigerians not to relent in
their prayers for Buhari and his administration.
Malam Jalaluddeen, a civil servant, expressed the hope that the
President would continue with the good works he had started especially
the fight against corruption and insurgency.
“Even though the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo has done
well in his absence but they will now put heads together to move the
country forward,” he added.
The Yoruba community in Zaria, Kaduna State comprising both Muslims
and Christians on Friday offered a special joint prayer to God for the
successful return of Buhari.
The prayer session was organised by a traditional tittle holder of Wakilin Yarbawan Zazzau, Alhaji Isyaku Bello.
Yoruba Clerics from both faith who converged at the residence of
Wakilin Yarbawa since 7:00a.m. prayed extensively for the president.
Leading the prayer session, the Imam, Zaria Muslim Council, Imam
Alhaji Abdurrasaq Olaliwola and Prophet Abraham Ojo (JP) said prayer
heals all worries.
The clergymen prayed God to bestow wisdom on President Buhari and
Gov. Nasiru El-Rufa’i of Kaduna State to enable them discharge their
legitimate responsibilities effectively.
They also prayed for unity amongst Nigerians and prevailing peace in Kaduna State in particular and Nigeria at large.
The Clerics also prayed God to heal the president, give him the wisdom, power and ability to deliver the goods successfully.
In his contribution, the President-General, Yoruba Community, Chief
Isaac Otolorin lauded the efforts of the organiser of prayer for his
foresight.
Otolorin stressed the need for all Nigerians irrespective of

president.
