The CAN on Thursday, February 9, said it is deeply concerned about the absence of President Muhammadu Buhari due to his health condition.
Speaking on the ongoing controversy surrounding President Buhari’s health status, the CAN called on all Nigerians to join hands in prayers for the quick and full recovery of the president.
A statement signed by the director of legal and public affairs Kwamkur Samuel urged Nigerians to also pray for the safe return of President Buhari.
Kwamkur cautioned Nigerians on dwelling on ‘needless’ rumour mongering over the president’s health.
He said: “President Muhammadu Buhari is human, hence subject to health challenges sometimes. CAN appreciates the anxiety of Nigerians to hear Mr. President speak, but sues for understanding as we await that. It is very clear that our leader is passing through health challenges.”
Kwamkur however advised the presidency to update Nigerians on the health status of the president and the full progress of his recovery.
“We call on all Christians and indeed all God-fearing Nigerians to dedicate time of prayers for our President and the nation. We owe our leaders prayers and support at all times while shunning divisive opinions that only generate strive,” Kwamkur said.
The Christian association further called for total support for the acting president Yemi Osinbajo from Nigerians while asking him to be bold in handling critical state affairs.
He said: “We acknowledge that government is a continuum, hence, we call on Acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo to be bold in handling critical state matters and not to be distracted by those who do not wish Nigeria well. God bless Nigeria!”
