He praised the former president’s outstanding leadership credentials and achievements, while recalling his commendable service to the nation as both Head of State and President.

In addition to establishing Nigeria’s first ever national social investment and protection programme, amongst many other feats.
In the statement, President Tinubu recalled the former President’s aggressive push to modernize Nigeria’s defence architecture while working towards empowerment of millions of Nigerian farmers in his progressive initiative to enhance food security in the country.
The President describes former President Buhari as paradigm of sacrifice, devotion, patriotism, and fidelity to the national cause.
“President Buhari is from the rarest phylum of virtuous servant-leaders. He has devoted his life to the service of the nation, even earning himself detention for his patriotism and service to our Fatherland. The emergence of leaders like my good friend, Buhari, happens only by divine orchestration. He is a man of absolute and undiluted integrity. His yea is yea, and his nay is nay,” the President Tinubu says.
