Former Military Head of State, Retired Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar, has described the late former President Muhammadu Buhari as a great patriot and statesman who significantly contributed to Nigeria’s socio-economic and political development.
He stated that Buhari would be deeply missed by his family,
friends, and indeed all Nigerians, and prayed for God’s repose of his soul.
“From God we came, and to Him we shall all return. The death
of President Buhari is a painful one, but who are we to question the will of
Almighty Allah?
“We have lost an honest, sincere leader and a patriotic
Nigerian at this critical time.
“May Allah forgive his shortcomings and give the family and
indeed all Nigerians the strength to bear this loss,” he said.
The ex-Head of State highlighted Buhari’s efforts in
fighting corruption during both his military and civilian administrations,
implementing measures that significantly impacted Nigeria’s trajectory.
He praised Buhari as a detribalised Nigerian, consensus
builder, and selfless leader who worked tirelessly to maintain the country’s
unity.
Abubakar prayed that Allah would grant Buhari a place among
the righteous in Aljannah Firdaus.
