In a statement by her media aide, Bukola Kukoyi, the first lady said the visit was to check on the former president and thank him for the fatherly support he gives always.
She prayed for long life, good health and more support from him not only for the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu but Nigeria as a whole.
In his brief remarks after the visit, Mr Buhari expressed appreciation to Mrs Tinubu, noting that the visit which was to see how he is settling down to life after public office, was remarkable.
