Nigeria’s Ambassador to Benin Republic and former Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Tukur Yusufu Buratai (Rtd), paid a condolence visit to the families of late OPEC Secretary-General, late Muhammadu Sanusi Barkindo, Walin Adamawa, and the Lamido of Adamawa on Sunday in Yola, Adamawa State.
While in Yola, Ambassador Buratai visited the late Sanusi Barkindo’s home in Walin Adamawa, where he commiserated with his elder brother Alhaji Hamidu Muhammad Jada, his wife, son, and relatives.
He then went to the family home, where he commiserated with the late Barkindo’s elderly mother, Hajiya Saadatu Barkindo.
Lt Gen Buratai (rtd) later went to the palace of Adamawa’s Lamido, Alhaji (Dr) Muhammadu Barkindo Aliyu Mustafa, and condoled with him on the death of Walin Adamawa.
Amb Buratai paid eloquent tribute to the late Barkindo, whom he described as a friend and patriot who served Nigeria and the international community meritoriously in various positions and left indelible marks in all of them.
He also stated that the late Walin Adamawa’s death was a significant loss not only to the family and the nation, but also to the international community.
Amb. Buratai also expressed his heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family, as well as the government and people of Adamawa State, for the tragic loss, pleading with Almighty Allah to grant the deceased aljannah Firdausi.
Special prayers were offered for the late Walin Adamawa, asking Allah to forgive his flaws and grant him aljannah Firdausi.
Remember that the former OPEC Secretary-General died around 11 p.m. on Tuesday, July 5, 2022, in Abuja, at the age of 63, and that he was buried in accordance with Islamic injunctions.
Amb Buratai was accompanied on the condolence visit by Doctor Manzo Ahmed, former Director of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Brigadier General Sani Usman Kukasheka (rtd), and Alhassan Sultan.
