The Presidency on Monday said the message from the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) to President Muhammadu Buhari was touching.

CAN in a statement during the weekend had expressed joy at the news of Buhari’s recovery.

Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, disclosed this in a statement made available to journalists in Abuja.

Shehu confirmed that President received the goodwill message from the CAN President, Rev. Samson Ayokunle.

“The CAN President referred to the news of President Buhari’s recovery from sickness as a ‘rejuvenation of hope’, and congratulated Nigerians on the joy of having their President back soon,” Shehu said.

He said the message meant so much in a period where the country was divided along religious lines.

“The Presidency looks forward to further collaborations with CAN to ensure that Nigerians of all ethnic and religious groups benefit from the policies of the President Buhari administration which are aimed at improving the welfare of every single citizen of our great country,” Shehu added.
