President Muhammadu Buhari heartily congratulates Kamarudeen Usman on
the successful defence of his Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC)
welterweight title with an emphatic win over Jorge Masvidal.
As the first African-born and Nigerian UFC Champion, President Buhari
commends the courageous fighter for finishing strong inside the octagon,
proudly flying the green and white colours in distant lands, and
reminding the world that good things and great people still come out of
Nigeria.
While the global COVID-19 pandemic may have brought gloom to many
families and nations, the President is delighted and gratified that our
welterweight champion has lifted our spirits with another professional
performance proving that things will surely get better at the fullness
of time when we remain committed to our vision.
The President wishes Usman the very best and more victories in his
career and prays that like fine wine, he improves with age.
