This is contained in a statement by Ajuri Ngelale, Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, on Wednesday in Abuja.
Tinubu said he shares in this moment of joy and thanksgiving with the leader of the Qadiriyya Sufi Order, who also serves as Head of Jama’atu Nasril Islam and President-General of the Nigerian Supreme Council of Islamic Affairs.
The president acknowledges the sacrifices and selflessness of the Sultan, who has, since his assumption of office in November 2006, worked assiduously for the sustenance of peaceful co-existence in the country and beyond.
