Former Minister of Interior and Interim National Secretary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, has come out to mourn the death of former president Muhammadu Buhari.
He recently remembered Buhari as a man of principle and unyielding integrity.
Speaking via a press statement, Aregbesola revealed that Buhari was a leader who served Nigeria selflessly.
According to him, the APC politician fulfilled his role as president with great conviction, and PMB deserves praise for staying committed to national unity until he drew his last breath.
“Today, we bid farewell to President Muhammadu Buhari, a leader who served Nigeria with deep conviction. His commitment to integrity and national unity defined his public service,” he said.
Rauf, who served in Buhari’s cabinet for eight years, further noted that the late leader had full faith in Nigeria’s potential to be great again.
He concluded by urging his fellow citizens to build on the solid foundation late Muhammadu Buhari laid.
As the nation continues to mourn, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has ordered flags to fly at half-mast, and Vice President Kashim Shettima has been instructed to head to the United Kingdom to accompany Buhari’s body home.
