What Buhari told Nigeria’s Bande, UN General Assembly President
He told him that he bears a heavy weight on his shoulders and that Nigeria was solidly behind him in the onerous task.
Muhammad-Bande, a Nigerian diplomat, was earlier in the year unanimously elected President of the General Assembly for one year. “I sincerely congratulate you. Your election was well received by the whole world. It was a unanimous support, and the global community received you well. That support puts heavy weight on you, and I wish you well,” the President said.
Responding, Prof. Muhammad-Bande said he was delighted to receive the Nigerian President, “along with your team of professionals and politicians.” He added: “Your nominating me for this position is the greatest honour I can have. The support from Africa and the world has been outstanding so far.”
