Borno state governor, Professor Babagana Umara Zulum has commiserated with Governor Abdulrahman AbdulRazaq of Kwara state over the demise of his father, AbdulGaniyu Abdul-Razaq (SAN) who died Saturday at 93.
Governor Zulum in a condolence message released Sunday by his spokesman, Malam Isa Gusau, said the late elder statesman was a legend on the good side of history.
“Our late father, Alhaji AbdulGaniyu Folorunsho AbdulRazaq was a legend and even in death, he still is, especially with his all-time record of being Northern Nigeria’s first lawyer, first Commissioner of Finance in Kwara state during the 70s, a former Nigerian ambassador, and at different times, president and vice president of the Nigerian Stock Exchange.
“Late Baba’s lifetime was of huge impact to so many. He was a mentor and role model to generations. He will always be remembered for the good things he did and the good ways he lived. I commiserate with my brother and colleague, Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq and his family.”
