President William Ruto joined leaders in mourning the death of former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari.
Buhari died in a London hospital on Sunday.
Ruto said Buhari’s demise is a loss not only to the people of the Federal Republic of Nigeria but also to the entire African Continent, which has been immeasurably enriched by his wisdom and steadfast commitment to the liberation and prosperity of the Nigerian people.
“During his tenure in office, President Buhari championed the fight against corruption, advanced regional security initiatives to counter terrorism, and supported Africa’s agenda for economic integration.”
“Kenya recalls with warmth his State Visit to Nairobi on January 2016, which marked a significant milestone in our bilateral relations,” he said.
President (Rtd) Uhuru Kenyatta eulogized him as a leader who bore the responsibilities of office with humility and unwavering commitment.
In his condolence message to the government and people of Nigeria, as well as to the family of the late President, Kenyatta paid tribute to Buhari’s legacy, stating, “President Buhari was not only a symbol of resilience but also of integrity. He had a firm stance on his principles and always prioritized the interests of Nigeria and Africa above self.”
