In his words, ” I don’t know how to appreciate you for coming to the aid of these students despite the short notice. My prayer is that the Lord will see you through successfully in all your endeavours. This is a huge surprise at this trying period when most students are finding it so difficult to feed and pay their school fees. The Lord will surprise you too. On behalf of the students, I say thank you, Sir.
Professor Ojebiyi O. O of the Department of Animal Husbandry who was in attendance also appreciated the uncommon gestures of Senator Buhari and implored the students to work hard to ensure that they came out in flying colours.
” Thank you, Senator Buhari, for this very great package. Fifty thousand naira (#50,000:00) is a huge sum. God will continue to uphold ,bless and crown your efforts with resounding success.

Senator Buhari thanked God for the privilege to give back to the society. He spoke a bit of his background and encouraged the students to be more prayerful, determined and focused.
According to the Fifth (5th) ranked best senator in Nigeria, ” If God can make me succeed, you will all succeed Insha Allah. God loves you all. My parents could not pay for my junior education. I had to be selling pap every morning before going to school to make ends meet. That’s why people call me “omo iya eleko”. My uncle, who took me to Ghana, marked the beginning of good things to come and today by God’s grace I am a PhD holder.
“Students, all you need is God. Be more prayerful, be determined and never lose focus. If God can bring me this far, you can also make it and by God’s grace, you will all make it in life.
“I am glad to announce to you that this programme will be an annual event by the Special grace of God, Senator Buhari concluded.
