''Today, along with my brother ex-Heads of State, I visited Sokoto state to celebrate former President Shehu Usman Aliyu Shagari as he marked his 90th birthday. President Shagari is a living legend of democracy and Nigeria will ever appreciate him for his services to the nation as a democratically elected leader and as a Statesman who guided his successors with the sagacity acquired from his years of leadership. Happy 90th Birthday sir. May God bless you and may God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.''
