President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday congratulated the Emir of Zazzau-Suleja, Alhaji Awwal Ibrahim,
on his 81st birthday.
The president, in a congratulatory message by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, joined the Suleja Emirate Council and Niger State Traditional Council to celebrate with the royal father.
Buhari said that the Emir had influenced the nation’s development in many ways.
The president felicitated with family, friends, and associates of the Emir, extolling the traditional ruler for always accepting responsibilities to serve the nation and his community.
