President
Muhammadu Buhari extends heartfelt condolences to the Kanti-Bello family as
well as the government and people of Katsina State on the death of Senator
Mahmud Kanti-Bello.
President
Buhari also commiserates with the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
over the passage of their distinguished colleague and former Senate Chief Whip,
who served two-terms in the upper legislative chamber.
As
Senator representing Katsina Central Constituency/Daura Senatorial zone from
2003-2011, President Buhari recalls that the late Senator Bello was a very
outspoken and courageous patriot, who worked hard to ensure that all levels of
government in the country were responsible and accountable.
The
President believes that Senator Bello’s effective representation of his people
at the national level and commitment to the unity of Nigeria will be long
remembered and honoured; and will continue to serve as inspiration to many
others.
President
Buhari urges Senator Kanti-Bello’s family, friends and associates to honour his
memory by continually upholding the values of honesty and accountability, which
served as his reference point throughout his public service.
The
President prays that Almighty Allah will comfort all who mourn him and grant
his soul eternal rest.
