PRESS RELEASE:
CORONA VIRUS: PRAY FOR ABBA KYARI, EL-RUFAI
The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has urged Nigerians to pray
for Abba Kyari, the Chief of Staff to President Buhari and the governor of
Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai. It will be recalled that Abba Kyari
reportedly tested positive to the novel corona virus two days ago while Mallam
El-Rufai announced his status yesterday evening.
The appeal was contained in a statement distributed to the media
on Sunday, 29th March, 2020 by Professor Ishaq Akintola, director of
the human rights organization.
MURIC said, “Both Abba Kyari and Governor Nasir El-Rufai deserve
prayers from Nigerians. They are both tested and trusted. Both of them are the
embodiments of loyalty, trust, dedication and service to humanity. Abba Kyari
has served Nigeria with all his strength. He proved a most loyal and dedicated aide
to President Muhammadu Buhari particularly during the latter’s prolonged illness.
El-Rufai has exhibited exemplary leadership, uncommon courage and immense love for
the citizens of Kaduna State.
“We call on Nigerians to pray for their quick recovery. Let us
remember them in our supplications every hour of the day. To the duo of Abba
Kyari and El-Rufai, we say, ‘Though you are in isolation we are with you in
spirit. You are not alone. The good people of Kaduna and Nigerians in general
are with you. We are confident that Almighty Allah, the great healer, will heal
you and you will emerge from isolation to continue your good work.”
