The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), on Saturday, mourned Alhaji Ganiyu AbdulRazaq (SAN) who died in the early hours of the day.

The deceased was Northern Nigeria’s first lawyer and father of the governor of Kwara State, Abdulrahaman AbdulRazaq.

Buhari’s tribute was contained in a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu.

The statement was titled “President Buhari mourns Abdularazaq, lawyer par excellence”.

Shehu quoted the President as saying describing the late statesman as an outstanding parliamentarian of his time.

He quoted Buhari as saying, “We will remember him as one of this country’s greatest legal minds and a national leader. He garnered respect that transcended our barriers visible and otherwise.

“His enormous contribution to the welfare of the people of his community, Kwara State and the country as a whole will serve to inspire future generations of our citizens.

“Whenever our nation loses an elder in the class of Alhaji Abdulrazaq, it should serve as a moment of reflection on how the lives they lived and their sacrifices built the foundation of what we must continue to strengthen.

“On behalf of my family, the government and people of our nation, I extend our heartfelt sympathies and condolences to the Governor of Kwara – Abdulrahaman AbdulRazaq and his family, His Highness, Emir Sulu Gambari of Ilorin, and the people of Kwara State.

“We pray for the eternal peace of his soul.”
