According to a statement from state house, he claimed that Morocco had "made the entire continent proud with their courage and agility, offering optimism that an African team may indeed win, and should win the current global championship in Qatar."

Mr. Buhari also praised the Moroccan government for their assistance in assembling such a capable team.
