President Muhammadu Buhari has nominated Imam Abubakar Abdullahi to serve in the National Ulama team for #Hajj2019.
Imam Abdullahi was well celebrated worldwide after saving 226 christians from unknown gunmen in villages around Barkin Ladi, Plateau State last year.
Abdullahi thanked Buhari for honouring him with the membership of the Ulama team and prayed to God to give him much wisdom to pilot the affairs of the nation to the yearning and aspiration of Nigerians.
The acting chairman, NAHCON, Alhaji Abdullahi Muhammad, who commended the cleric for the show of love, said President Muhammadu Buhari had ordered that Abdullahi be included in the membership of the National Ulama committee.
The international award-winning religious leader is among 80 others charged with the responsibility of enlightening Nigerians pilgrims in Muna.
