“Papa was a great leader, a great mentor and a nationalist who influenced a lot of people in positive ways. He did his best and this has shown in so many ways. I am sure Baba has gone to rest with his Creator,” the Kano State governor noted.
He, however, commended Governor Abiodun for his style of leadership and ability to deliver good governance in the state.
“Seeing is believing, when you go round the state, you will see what he has done and I believe he is a very successful governor; he has done a lot for his people and God will reward him for that,” Ganduje pointed out.
Senator Ali Modu Sheriff remarked that he was saddened by the death of Pa Abiodun, adding he was happy that the deceased left an enduring legacy through his children who are doing well and a host of other people he impacted upon.
