According to the website of the Federal Ministry Of Information, fmi.gov.n, the president stated that: Please convey my heart-felt condolences to the immediate family and the good citizens of Alor town. It is always sad when a dear friend loses his dad, as one cannot fully share the grief. But, we must take solace in the old saying: ‘All who live must die, passing through nature to eternity.’ I join you in honouring the grand old man and cherish the contributions he and his contemporaries made to build Nigeria to the status it is now. His was a life well spent”.
