President Buhari today, extended heartfelt condolences to the Dangin family on the death of Senator Venmak Kurnap Dangin. The President also commiserates with the government and people of Plateau State on the death of their illustrious son, who served as a distinguished senator of the Federal Republic, between July 1992 and November 1993. Similarly, President Buhari also described the death of a famous Kano businessman, Alhaji Shehu Azare, as a great loss not only to the state, but to the country at large. In a condolence message to the governments and people of Kano and Bauchi States, the President said “his footprints on trade and commerce are indelible.” The late Azare, he said, was one of the oldest entrepreneurs in Northern Nigeria “who achieved fame and fortune through sheer hard work and determination.” In a statement by the Senior Special Assistant on Media and publicity, Garba Shehu, the President also noted that “businessmen of Azare’s generation and time believed in hardwork and personal resourcefulness to make it rather than seeking shortcuts to prosperity through fraudulent activities.” According to President Buhari, “Azare should be a source of inspiration to anyone who believes in hard work and decent business conduct,” adding that “our modern day younger businessmen should imbibe his good virtues.”The post President Buhari mourns the death of famous Kano State businessman, Shehu Azare and Plateau State'sSenator Venmak Dangin appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
