If there is any biggest health comeback in Nigeria in the last eight years, it may just be that of the outgoing President, Muhammadu Buhari.
Not long after he assumed office, be became so sick that many did not give him any chance of surviving.
He had to be away in London for a long time, receiving treatment till he eventually bounced back.
The ‘miracle’ was so unbelievable to some people that they said Buhari had died and joined his Fulani ancestors, and that some spin doctors only cloned and imposed on Nigeria a Jubril from Sudan.
Well, as the living soul called Buhari is set to leave office, he has saluted those who stood by him at the difficult time.
This he did in his farewell speech to the country on Sunday.
He said: “I cannot and will not forget the millions who prayed for me during my illness in my first term of office. I am constantly praying for you and for Nigeria to thrive in peace.
“I thank you all. And may God Bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
