“I commiserate with the family of the former governor, who served the state, our party, All Progressives Congress, APC and the nation with steadfastness and consistency in his political views, and worked assiduously for the progress of the party”. “As the APC chieftain bowed out, he left the world at a crucial moment when the party and the country needed his counsel to heal and grow, adding that his absence will be sorely felt by all associates, particularly in the APC.”
The international cardiovascular surgeon prayed to the Almighty God to comfort the family of the former governor and grant him a peaceful rest.
