President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on Sunday, paid a condolence visit to the family of late former President Muhammadu Buhari in Kaduna, assuring them that his government will preserve and carry forward the values and legacies left behind by the departed statesman.
At the Buhari family residence, Tinubu was warmly received by the late President’s widow, Aisha Buhari, his eldest son, Yusuf, along with other family members. He expressed that the entire nation shares in their grief and will always hold on to Buhari’s virtues.
In a statement released by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu said: “We are here to assure you that we share in your grief, we share in your pain. A loss in flesh is not a loss in the spirit, and the spirit he left with us is one of hard work, dedication, patriotism, and honesty, and that is what we are committed to.”
The President further pledged that his administration will not depart from the path Buhari charted for the country. “We assure you and the entire family that we will continue with our leader’s legacy, the mark he made for Nigeria. We will continue on the path of honesty, integrity, and great character that he impacted in us. May God help Nigeria, keep us united and together in the promised land,” Tinubu added.
