Immortalise Adebanjo, Clark, ex-Senate President urges Tinubu

Former President of the Senate, Senator David Mark has urged President Bola Tinubu to immortalize former Federal Commissioner for Information, Pa Edwin Kiagbodo Clark and Pa Ayo Adebanjo.

He acknowledged their selfless services and contributions to Nigeria.

He stated this in a condolence message issued in Abuja and signed by his media aide, Paul Mummeh.

The former Senate President who lamented over the demise of two elder statesmen noted that “their demise marks the end of an era thus, creating a void in Nigeria’s socio-political landscape.”

Senator Mark described Clark and Adebanjo as the “last of the conscience of the nation, who tirelessly fought for a progressive Nigeria of equal opportunities for all.

“Both elder statesmen were united in their quest for an egalitarian society, free from oppression and marginalization.”

Senator Mark added that their exit is painful and regrettable, especially at this time when Nigeria needs men of good conscience and valour to address the numerous challenges.

He further expressed the hope that the ideals of patriotism, equal opportunities, unity, peace, and progress which the departed elder statesmen advocated will inspire Nigeria’s future growth.

The former Senate boss also consoled the immediate families, governments, and people of Ogun and Delta States just as he urged them to find solace in the credible legacies left behind by the two elder statesmen.
