The Senate President
Bukola Saraki yesterday night travelled to Saudi Arabia to join millions of
Muslim faithful gathered in the Holy Land for this year’s Hajj.
A statement by his
special adviser on media and publicity, Yusuph Olaniyonu, said Mr. Saraki would
also use the opportunity to pray for the health of President Muhammadu Buhari
as well as the unity, stability, and development of Nigeria.
“He will spend the
period of the holy pilgrimage to pray for more success for the Eighth National
Assembly in the execution of its legislative agenda which is aimed at helping
to improve the standard of living of the citizenry and positively transform the
national economy,” the statement added.
The senate president
is expected back early September when the Hajj is expected to have been
completed by pilgrims.
