The immediate past national chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole has expressed deep sadness over the death of Alhaji Sani Dangote, the Vice President of Dangote Group who died Monday.
In a message, yesterday by Comrade Oshiomhole and made available to the press by his media aide, Mr Victor Oshioke, the former Edo State governor said that he woke up to hear of the sad news of the death from protracted illness of Alhaji Dangote, the younger brother of business mogul, Alhaji Aliko Dangote.
He eulogized the deceased as a reliable, enterprising and highly responsible friend, noting that he was an uncommonly dependable confidant to the elder Dangote in business family and all concerns of life.
He noted that the late businessman will always be remembered as “a man who came to the world, lived at peace with humanity, gave his best to society and carried love in his heart to meet his creator.”
Oshiomhole said that in his many years of very close affiliation with the Dangote family, Sani readily came across as a perfect exemplification of the industry, humility, empathy and generosity for which the entire Dangote family is renowned.
He eulogized: “Sani was brilliant yet unassuming, savvy in business yet considerate in his practices. He was particularly passionate about his investments in agro-allied business concerns that touched people’s lives directly and impacted on the healthy growth of society.
“Though his name was not always in the headlines, especially because of his humble disposition, yet his contributions to the building of the Dangote brand and the positive impact of the brand on the Nigerian economy cannot be underestimated.”
The former APC national chairman continued: “As mortals, though we mourn the loss of this our eminent brother, we are consoled by the knowledge that while he lived, he touched the lives of so many people in so many positive ways that he will always be remembered as a man who came to the world, lived at peace with humanity, gave his best for the good of society and carried love in his heart to meet his creator.”
