The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the prayer session drew Islamic clerics from all sects across the state.
The octogenarian said: “I want to appeal for forgiveness from all, whoever feels that I offended him/her should forgive me and whoever knew that I ‘ve done something good to him/her should give glory to God Almighty. I remember that was my last speech to Adamawa people while leaving there as military governor.”
