The National Leader of the All
Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu has commiserated with Bauchi
State Governor, Mohammed Abdullahi Abubakar and the people of the state over
the passing on of former Deputy Governor, Alhaji Garba Muhammed-Gadi.
The former Deputy Governor passed
on last week Tuesday at an Indian hospital.
He served as deputy to former
Governor Isa Yuguda from 2007 to 2011.
In a condolence letter to
Governor Abubakar dated August 8, 2017, Tinubu described the late Muhammed-Gadi
as an astute administrator and energetic politician.
“My dear Governor Abubakar,
“I was deeply saddened when I
learnt of the passing of Muhammed-Gadi.
“Muhammed-Gadi was very
passionate about Bauchi State and the development of the state. He reportedly
did wonderfully well when he served as deputy governor under the administration
of Governor Isa Yuguda from 2007 to 2011.
“I knew him to be an astute
administrator and energetic politician. I recall vividly how we worked closely
together when he was the National Chairman, Merger Committee, which supervised
the fusing of the ACN with CPC and other political forces to form the APC.
“Muhammed-Gadi, Danburan Katagum,
handled that national assignment creditably. His superb administrative acumen
and political sagacity was clearly demonstrated in the way he discharged
himself.
“Since then, his belief in and
commitment to the baby, the APC, he partly midwifed has never been in doubt.
Whether at the state or at the national level, he worked assiduously for the
success of our party.
“Please accept my condolences. My
heart also goes out to members of his immediate family, his political
associates and the good people of Bauchi State whom Muhammed-Gadi devoted his
life to.
“My prayer is that our prayers
help to comfort them all at this moment. May God also grant the soul of our
friend and brother eternal rest,” the letter read.
