President Muhammadu Buhari has mourned the death of All Progressives Congress (APC) former National Vice Chairman, (North) Inuwa Abdulkadir.
WITHIN NIGERIA recalls that Abdulkadir died on Monday morning.
A statement signed by Femi Adesina, Buhari’s Spokesman, said that the President joins the APC in grief over the passing of the former member of the National Working Committee, Abdulkadir.
The statement added that “President Buhari condoles with family members, friends and political associates of the party stalwart, who served the country as Minister of Sports and Youth Development, and played a prominent role in the creation and sustenance of the party.”
According to Adesina, Buhari “believes Alhaji Abdulkadir’s humility, maturity and penchant for facilitating reconciliation among members will be sorely missed at a time the APC is rebuilding and repositioning to deliver on its promises, urging members to always remember and project same legacies of putting the country first.”
The President “prays that the almighty God will receive the soul of the departed, and comfort his family.”
