Muhammed Bello, minister of the federal capital
territory (FCT), and Lawal Daura, director-general of
the Department of State Service (DSS), led a
delegation of Muslim faithful to the Aguda house,
residence of Acting President Yemi Osinbajo, on
Sunday.
In the delegation was Yusuf, the first and only son of
President Muhammadu Buhari.
Osinbajo thanked his visitors and re-echoed the Sallah
message of Buhari.
He promised that the current administration would do
its best to sustain Nigeria’s unity and stability to
ensure speedy progress of the country.
The acting president charged all Nigerians to look
beyond their ethnic or religious beliefs while dealing
with each other in order to move the nation forward.
“Your ethnicity does not matter and that is why for us,
unity is so important that we must work together to
make sure that our country is able to take care of the
millions of people we govern,” he said.
“God expects us to take care of the poor and those
suffering, to ensure that we use government resources
only in such a way that will be good for the majority of
our people.”
Prayers were for the quick recovery of Buhari.
Some of the dignitaries who visited Osinbajo were
Mohammed Adamu, acting imam of Abuja national
mosque; Samson Jonah, chairman of the Christian
Association of Nigeria (CAN), FCT chapter; Walter
Onnoghen, chief justice of Nigeria, and some members
of the national assembly and cabinet ministers.
