President Buhari equally felicitated with family, friends and other church leaders within and outside the country, thankful for Adeboye’s positive influence on people and institutions, with a focus on expanding the kingdom of God on earth.

The President, who recalled the visits and prayers, especially when he was ill and recuperating, expressed gratitude for the friendliness and wise counsels of the General Overseer over many years.

President Buhari prayed that the Almighty God will continue to bless and guide Pastor Adeboye and his family.
