The Sokoto Governor also called on the religious leaders to promote peaceful co-existence among people of different faith.
Tambuwal said “The nation will remain grateful for the fervent prayers you have embarked upon while the President was away receiving medical attention.
“Along with our Muslim brothers, we all prayed and it is gratifying to note that our prayers have been answered. We should not relent on that.”
“We believe the whole country can learn from our rich history of tolerance and moderation. I’m happy you have chosen Sokoto for your meeting.
