It was only a miracle that Yusuf, the only son of President Muhammadu Buhari recovered from a power bike accident he was involved in on December 26, 2017.

This is according to the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Administration and Women Affairs (Office of the First Lady), Dr. Hajo Sani.

Dr. Sani disclosed this in the biography of the wife of the President, Aisha, titled ‘Aisha Buhari: Being different,’ which was presented to the public at an elaborate event held at the State House Conference Centre, Abuja on Thursday.

Recall that Yusuf Buhari had a bike accident around Gwarimpa in the Federal Capital Territory in 2017. He sustained a head injury and had one of his limbs broken.

He first had surgery in an Abuja hospital before he was flown abroad for further medical attention.

Recalling the incident, the presidential aide wrote,

Little was known about Yusuf either as son of the President or in any ostentatious capacity because of his customary low-profile lifestyle until the unfortunate accident that almost claimed his life on December 26, 2017.

Families, well-wishers and the entire nation prayed for his recovery.

The transformation of his condition within just a few months was nothing short of a miracle.

He recovered by the will of God and the goodwill of his parents. God was definitely not finished with the young man.
