President Muhammadu Buhari has received congratulations from Mr. Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s nominee for president, on his 80th birthday.
Obi appealed to God Almighty for Buhari, who celebrated his 80th birthday on Saturday, to live longer and be in better health.
This was mentioned by the former governor of Anambra State in a tweet on Saturday.
He tweeted, “Congratulations to PMB @ 80!
Mr. President @MBuhari, I rejoice with you as you turn 80 today. May God Almighty, grant you many more healthy, fruitful, and happy years; and continue to protect and bless you, and your family always. Happy birthday Mr President. –PO.”
In the meantime, Buhari received congratulations on his 80th birthday from Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and his wife, Dolapo.
A communiqué that the vice president personally signed in Abuja contained the message from the pair.
The statement read, “Happy 80th Birthday, Mr President!
“Your extraordinary life of unblemished service to the nation in the army, as a Governor, Minister, Military Head of State and as two-term Civilian President demonstrates that it is possible to serve the nation and our people honestly, forthrightly and selflessly.
“Dolly and I, and the family wish you many more happy years in peace and good health in Jesus’ name. Amen.”
