Buhari Was Deeply Committed To Nigeria’s Unity – Aregbesola
Interim National Secretary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola has described late former President Muhammadu Buhari as a patriot who believed in Nigeria’s unity.
Aregbesola, who served as Buhari’s Minister of Interior between 2019 and 2023, also described the late Nigerian leader as a leader with deep conviction and principle which culminated in his commitment to integrity in his years of public service.
OSUN DEFENDER reports that Buhari died on Sunday afternoon, in a London hospital after a brief illness.
He wrote, “Today we bid farewell to President Muhammadu Buhari, a leader who served Nigeria with deep conviction and unwavering principle. His commitment to integrity and national unity defined his public service.
”Nigeria has lost a statesman who believed deeply in our potential as one nation. We have gained the enduring example of a leader who remained true to his values.
”May Allah forgive him, accept his service, and grant him Aljannatul Firdaus. Our prayers are with his family and all Nigerians in this moment of reflection,” Aregbesola noted.
