First Lady Oluremi Tinubu, on Thursday, visited former President Muhammadu Buhari at his country home in Daura, Katsina State.
Mrs Tinubu, who was accompanied by the wife of the Vice President, Nana Shettima, said the visit was to check on the former President and thank him for his fatherly support.
Special Adviser to the First Lady on Media and Publicity, Busola Kukoyi, disclosed this in a statement she signed on Thursday titled ‘First Lady pays visit to former President Mohammadu Buhari’.
Kukoyi revealed that Mrs Tinubu prayed for long life and good health for the former President, even as she sought more support from him, not only for the administration of President Bola Tinubu, but for Nigeria.
In his brief remarks, the former President thanked the first and second ladies for their concern.
“As you can all see, she came to check up on me and see that I am doing okay”, Buhari said.
The First Lady was accompanied by the wife of the Katsina State Governor, Fatima Radda, and the wife of the Speaker, Katsina State House of Assembly, Nasir Daura, among other all Progressives Congress women chieftains in the state.
Buhari concluded his second tenure as President on May 29. He was also Nigeria’s military head of state from 1983 to 1985.
