Atiku breaks silence on Garba Nadama’s death 

Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, on Sunday, mourned Dr. Garba Nadama, the second Civilian Governor of old Sokoto State, describing him as ”a man of uncommon character.”

Abubakar, in a statement issued by his Media Adviser, Mr. Paul Ibe, in Abuja, said the deceased would be remembered for his developmental strides in the old Sokoto State.

“Though death is incumbent upon every soul, Nadama’s turn came at a time the nation, most importantly, his native state of Sokoto, needed his expertise, exemplary leadership skills and statesmanlike counsel in navigating through these difficult times.

“Nadama was a man of a unique character, a stubborn politician known for his ability to challenge the authority if need be, with dignity, in the pursuant of those necessities for his people.

“The late governor was not just a politician, but democrat par excellence, who believed and practiced democracy according to its laid down rules.

“His developmental strides in the areas of infrastructure and the education sector will remain an excellent one in the entire old Sokoto state.

“Not many remember him as the brain behind the institutionalization amongst others of the Federal Polytechnic, Kaura Namoda in Zamfara state.

“Indeed, this is a testament to his commitment to education as the bedrock of societal development,” he said.

Atiku prayed to God to grant his soul eternal bliss and count him among the recipients of the abundant blessings in this holy month of Ramadan.

DAILY POST had reported that Nadama died of natural causes a few days ago at the age of 82.
