Adesina said the award would be conferred on Buhari for his leadership role in promoting peace on the African continent, through regular inventions, counsels, and conciliatory positions.

 

The Forum for Peace was founded in Abu Dhabi in 2015 and was dedicated to strengthening Islamic narratives of peace-building and tolerance in a world of religious pluralism.

Present at the award event were Mohamed Ghazouani, president of Mauritania; Abdallah Bin Bayyah, president of the Forum for Promoting Peace in Muslim Societies; and Al Mahfoudh Bin Bayyah, secretary-general of the Abu Dhabi Forum for Promoting Peace.
