He quoted Buhari as saying: “Thank you for supporting me. I assure you that I will do my best during the second term. We will work for Nigeria and her people."

He said: “We are most grateful to almighty Allah for bringing you back for another term in office. Our happiness and gratitude goes to Nigerians for electing you."
Justice Nasir said the foundation also remains grateful for the years the President served as its chairman.
