The Jama’atu Nasril Islam (JNI) has expressed concern over the rumors on the health of President Muhammadu Buhari and called on Nigerians to pray for him rather than spreading unfounded rumours. 

The JNI said in a statement by its Secretary General, Dr.  Khalid Abubakar Aliyu, “Muslims should be cautioned not to join the bandwagon of rumor mongers. This is so because already some unpatriotic elements are wishing that the President is dead… Aren’t we supposed to wish each other well, let alone the President of the country?” 

The JNI added that considering the undue excitement over the president’s delayed return to Nigeria, “we implore all and sundry, particularly the Muslims, to persistently supplicate for President Muhammadu Buhari’s safe return, restoration of good health and the ability to continue with the task of piloting Nigeria to greater heights.”
