Corps members visit Buhari in Daura to celebrate Sallah with him



 Corps members posted to Daura, Katsina state, have visited President Muhammadu Buhari to celebrate this year's Eid-el-Kabir with him

The president is happy to have the corps members around for the Sallah celebration

He said "one of the Sallah traditions he looks ahead to the most is the visit by corps members  posted to Daura".

President Muhammadu Buhari is currently celebrating the Eid-el-Kabir with National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members posted to Daura, Katsina state, the home town of the president.

Buhari disclosed this in a tweet on his official Twitter page on Tuesday, August 21, in which he stated that, visit by corps members posted to Daura was one of the Sallah traditions he looked forward to the most.

"Many of the Corps members posted to Daura are from southern Nigeria, and have by no means lived in or experienced this part of the country. For them to be brought to the desert or near the Sahel region is a hard issue, however I have no doubt it'll make a positive effect on Nigeria.

"I welcomed them to my ancient town of Daura, and asked them to enjoy their service year, and the hospitality of the people. Irrespective of where they’re from, Daura is also their home, and i desire that in the years to come they'll look back to this time with fond recollections."
