President Muhammadu Buhari has showered encomiums on his former boss and one of his predecessors, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo describing his life journey as a life of courage, dedication and service to Nigeria, Africa, and humanity in general.

He said Obasanjo’s commitment remains outstanding and commendable.

He also underscored Obasanjo’s sacrifices for the continent, including standing up for democracy in many countries.
