President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday joined the All Progressives Congress (APC) in grief over the passing of a former member of the National Working Committee, Alhaji Inuwa Abdulkadir, who served as vice-chairman, North West.

According to a statement issued by Femi Adesina, Special Adviser to the President (Media & Publicity), in Abuja, the President condoled 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.”

The President expressed the belief that 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.

Buhari urged members to always remember and project the same legacies of putting the country first.

President Buhari prays that the almighty God will receive the soul of the departed, and comfort his family.
