The president was received by Governor Abdulaziz Yari of Zamfara state, Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi state; members of the Federal Executive Council, top government officials, federal lawmakers and service chiefs among others.

On arrival, Buhari inspected a guard of honour mounted by men of the Guards Brigade. With the elaborate airport ceremonies over, the president and some top aides left for the presidential villa.

While the leader of the nation was asked about his health status, President Buhari said that he was okay.

“You have seen me. You saw me when I was going. You can do the assessment yourself. “I am okay. You can see me inspecting the guard of honour. You can see I am taller than you. Do you want to wrestle with me, you can do so,” Buhari said.
