I wish all Muslims a happy and fulfilling Eid El Kabir celebration. We can create the greatest impact by putting into practice the noble teachings of our religion. We must put the fear of God in our daily activities in order to make our society better.

[Muhammadu Buhari @MBuhari]

In my meeting with the Governors today, I informed them that I have directed the Presidential Task Force on Covid-19 to work very closely with all State Governors. To succeed in containing this pandemic we have to improve collaboration.

[Muhammadu Buhari @MBuhari]

My position regarding all herbal or traditional medicines is that any such formulations should be sent to the statutory regulators for thorough scientific verification. We will not put anything to use in Nigeria without the endorsement of our regulatory institutions.

[Muhammadu Buhari @MBuhari]

I will urge you all to please continue to create awareness on the seriousness of the coronavirus among your worshippers and communities while appealing that they strictly comply with public health advisories.

[Muhammadu Buhari @MBuhari]

I also thank the Nigeria Governors’ Forum and the Presidential Task Force for all their hard work to date. Through this collaboration, I remain confident that success is achievable.

#RIPAbbaKyari

[Sen. George Akume @GeorgeAkume1]

The FMSD&IGA deeply mourns the death of Mallam Abba Kyari, a patriotic and loyal Chief of Staff to his Excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari. He was a technocrat who served Nigeria with distinction. While we miss him, the angels welcome him home. God bless and protect his family
