President Muhammadu Buhari has expressed appreciation to Nigerians for the prayers offered on his behalf.
Since January 19 when he went on vacation in the UK, different individuals and groups have been praying for him.
On Friday, 350 mosques offered special prayers for the nation’s number one citizen.
Responding to the goodwill after receiving national assembly leaders at Abuja House, London, on Wednesday, Buhari said he appreciated Christians and Muslims alike for the interest in his health.
