Former Vice President and chieftain of All Progressives Congress, Atiku Abubakar expresses joy and relief at the return of President Muhammadu Buhari from the United Kingdom.
In a statement released in Abuja on Friday, 10 March 2017 by his Media Office, the former Vice President says Buhari’s safe return is a happy moment not only as fellow party member, but also as a Nigerian that has tremendous goodwill and best wishes for the President.
According to the Turakin Adamawa, the return of the President at this time would put to an end to the uncertainty and the conspiracy theories that attended his 50 days absence.
Atiku Abubakar explains that, with the President’s return, Nigerians should unite behind their common interests and speak with one voice instead of nursing bitterness against one another because of political differences.
The former Vice President prays to God to bless the President with many more years of good health and energy to serve his country successfully.
Also, the All Progressives Congress (APC) heartily welcomes our dear President, His Excellency Muhammadu Buhari back to the country after his medical vacation in the United Kingdom.
The Party believes that President Buhari is now well rested and has returned with new vigour and optimism to fix the challenges facing our people and fulfil the promises our Party made to Nigerians during the 2015 elections.
We thank the President for following due process and properly handing over to his deputy, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and thereby saving the country the needless controversies and crises that we experienced in the past.
The Party also commend the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo for competently holding fort on behalf of Mr. President and for his loyalty and commitment to the Change Agenda of our Party.
We thank Nigerians and all men and women of goodwill who have been praying for the health and safe return of the President and note that the government is fully committed to the Party’s manifesto of Change, couched on true transformation in every area of national life.
