The Archbishop of Canterbury in England, Justin Welby has supported the re-election bid of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Garba Shehu sais Archbishop Welby offered to support the President’s ambition with prayers but noted that the church is neutral.
“You have my best wishes on your recent decision. I read your declaration speech. We are neutral as a church, but we will pray for you. Great statesmen are those who run for the good of their country. We’ll be praying for you,” Welby was quoted as saying.
Confirming his meeting with Buhari, the clergy man also wrote via his Twitter handle that part of the issues he discussed with the Nigerian President was the farmer-herdsmen crisis in the country and the only Dapchi girl remaining in Boko Haram custody.
