President Goodluck Jonathan has commiserated with the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, and the people of Kano on the death of the Galadiman Kano, Alhaji Tijani Hashim.
In a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, the President joins them in mourning Alhaji Tijani “who served his people admirably over many years as a regional minister in the first republic and very senior member of the Kano Emirate Council.
“The President believes the eminent Kano prince and highly revered community leader will always be remembered and honoured for his laudable contributions to peace, stability and progress in his community and country.”
President Jonathan prayed that God Almighty would receive the late Galadima’s soul and grant him eternal rest.
He also prayed that the Almighty would bless the good people of Kano with a worthy successor to the late prince.
