After the commissioning of projects in Ogun State, President Muhammadu Buhari paid a condolence visit to the family of the late Chief Ernest Shonekan, former Head of the Interim National Government, at their residence in Ikoyi, Lagos.
The Governors of Ogun, Lagos and Yobe joined him on the visit. They were received by the widow, Mrs Margaret Shonekan, and family members.
President Buhari expressed heartfelt condolences, as well as signed the condolence register.
As he noted in his earlier tribute, Chief Shonekan was a true statesman and leader. A peacemaker, stabilizer, fountain of wise counsel, and a firm believer in the prosperity and greatness of Nigeria.
