“As President, Yar’Adua carried with him the burden of reconciling our people, fostering unity and mobilising citizens across the land towards building a nation of justice, peace and progress.
“His tenure, although short, was impactful and progressive, a moment we remember for selfless service and deep commitment to the public good.
