Yesterday was a solemn and deeply emotional day for me.

We laid to rest a man I was proud to call a friend, a brother, and a patriot… His Excellency, Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR.

Mai Gaskiya was not just a former president. He was a man of rare discipline and quiet strength, whose love for Nigeria shaped every decision he made, even in the face of criticism.

I mourn him deeply, not just as my predecessor, but as a comrade in the long and often lonely journey of nation-building.

To his beloved wife, Hajiya Aisha Buhari, and the entire family, I offer my heartfelt condolences. May you find comfort in the honour and legacy he leaves behind.

Nigeria has lost a true son. I have lost a friend in former President Buhari.

May Almighty Allah grant him Aljannah Firdaus.

Rest well, ‘Baba Buhari’
