Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has written a condolence letter to President Muhammadu Buhari over the demise of his chief of staff Abba Kyari as a result of coronavirus complications.
Obasanjo said “I received the news of the demise of Alhaji Abba Kyari, your Chief of Staff, over Friday night, with great sadness, as he lost the battle against the dreadful killer disease, COVID.19.
“Abba Kyaris death must be painful to you and to his family and friends, but you can all take solace in the fact that he died in harness, in the service of his country.
“His death must be a solemn reminder to all of us that COVID.19 requires all hands on deck soberly, cooperatively, humanly, humanely, justly, equitably, fairly, consolidated, and comprehensively to be able to fight it successfully, and to get all Nigerians back to good health and healthy economy.
“God will give you and Abba Kyari’s family and friends the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss. May Allah receive his soul.”
