President Muhammadu Buhari has reiterated his commitment to handing over leadership to an elected president on May 29, 2023, saying that his term in office will end on that day in line with constitution.
The president stated this at a brief remark when he hosted the Special Envoy of King Mohammed the VI of Morocco, Shakib Ben Musa, at the State House, Abuja.
Musa is also the Minister of National Education, Pre-School and Sports of the Kingdom of Morocco.
According to President Buhari, his term of office will end with the inauguration of a new president in May next year.
He, however, said that he would study the message sent and respond accordingly, giving assurances at the same time that he would continue to cherish and strengthen the very warm and cordial relations between the two countries.
Earlier in his remarks, Musa, who was accompanied by Moha Ou Ali Tagma, the resident representative of the Kingdom in Nigeria, reiterated the friendship and solidarity of the King, the government and people of Morocco with Nigeria. (NAN)
