Prince Philip’s death loss to Commonwealth, world – Atiku Abubakar
He described the Late Duke of Edinburgh, who died on Friday at the age of 99, as a man whose life was one of service and a pattern of good works.
“I found in Prince Philip, a man committed to the unity of the world and the advancement of the dignity of humanity as well as the brotherhood of man.
“His military service, and the dutifully supportive role he played by the side of Her Royal Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, will forever be remembered and studied as an epitome of royalty and loyalty.
“His charitable works, which saw him as the patron of some 800 causes and organisations, will also be warmly remembered,” Atiku wrote on Twitter.
He said he met his royal highness during the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting held in Abuja in 2003, which was hosted by his boss, former President Olusegun Obasanjo.
The former Vice President condoled with the British Royal Family and prayed that the Almighty would grant them the fortitude to bear the loss.
