Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, on Friday, August 4, visited President Muhammadu Buhari at the Abuja House in London, the Presidency said. In a Twitter statement, the Presidency said Welby expressed delight in seeing that “Buhari is recovering rapidly.”
The cleric was also quoted as pledging that he would continue to pray for Buhari and Nigeria. In his response, Buhari expressed gratitude to the cleric for the gesture and thanked him for staying by him at “critical times.” This is the first time the Archbishop or any notable British personality would publicly visit Buhari since he returned to London for medical follow-up on May 7, 2017.
