Vice President Yemi Osinbajo on Saturday witnessed the turbaning ceremony of Alhaji Yusuf Buhari, the President’s son, as the Talban Daura – a District Head title in Daura, Katsina State, at a well-attended event graced by dignitaries from across the country.
Speaking on the occasion, the Emir of Daura, Alhaji Dr. Umar Farouk Umar, praised President Muhammadu Buhari for his leadership qualities, adding that power belongs to God and He gives it to whoever He pleases.
The Emir disclosed that the Daura Emirate Council decided to honour Mr. President and his family with the traditional title being conferred on Yusuf Muhammadu Buhari, especially since the President won’t be able to take any other title considering his current position as Nigeria’s leader.
