Buhari in the statement described the late Emir as “someone whose words of wisdom, nobility and decency will be sorely missed, especially at a time the government is relying on traditional rulers to sensitise citizens on directives for safety”.
The President urged Abubakar’s family and the entire Emirate to find solace in the good works of the deceased and ensure his legacies were carried on.
He prayed the Almighty God to forgive the shortcomings of the Emir, remember his good works and grant his soul eternal rest.
