President Muhammadu Buhari has described the death of foremost politician and businessman, Alhaji Musa Musawa, a one-time Senator, as a great loss to Nigeria.
In a condolence message by his spokesman, Malam Garba Shehu, on Wednesday in Abuja, Buhari said the nation mourns the loss of a political giant and a true Nigerian.
He described the deceased as ”a towering grassroots politician with a nuanced understanding of matters who had very few parallels as a campaigner in his heydays.”
He noted that the deceased lived a worthy life, ”leaving us with innumerable happy memories of accomplishments as a politician, businessman and a community leader. We will miss him a lot.
“May Allah repose his soul and grant fortitude to his family, the government and people of Katsina State to bear the loss.”
