Former President Muhammadu Buhari, on Wednesday, urged Nigerians to support the country’s leaders at this ailing juncture of the nation’s economy.
He disclosed this shortly after observing the Eid prayer even as he congratulated Muslims on the successful completion of the 30-day Ramadan fasting and the performance of Eid.
Speaking to newsmen in Daura, Buhari urged all citizens to support the leaders from the Local Government level to the highest at the centre in their efforts to transform the development landscape of the nation.
He said: “Support for our leaders. It is a vote for a better tomorrow.
