President Buhari and late media mogul, Sam Nda-Isaiah
President Muhammadu Buhari has expressed sadness and loss at the death of the chairman of Leadership Group, Sam Nda-Isaiah, a man he describes as “a friend and ally”, a statement.
President Buhari condoled with the Nigerian media, the Nda-Isaiah family, friends, and associates of the recently deceased.
“The country has lost a man of conviction, a resolute and dogged believer in a better Nigeria,” the statement quoted Buhari as saying.
“He will be sorely missed. This is a massive fish gone out of the media ocean,” the presidential spokesman further quoted the president as saying “of the pharmacist, renowned columnist, and one-time presidential aspirant on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC).”
