Presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has sent his message of condolence to the government and people of Jigawa over the death of Emir of Dutse, Alhaji Mohammed Nuhu Sanusi II.
In a statement he personally signed, Obi said: “It is with deep shock, but with submission to the will of Almighty Allah, that Labour Party and the Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Organisation received the very sad news of the passing, on January 31, 2023, of His Royal Highness, Alhaji Mohammed Nuhu Sanusi II, the third Emir of Dutse, at the age of 79, in Abuja.”
“Just a day earlier, my running mate, Dr. Datti Baba-Ahmed and I, together with our entourage, were received with so much warmth and pageantry, at the palace, in Dutse, as part of our presidential campaign itinerary. “While we listened to the supplications, prayers and words of advice from Emir Sanusi, and other emirate officials, little did we know of what had been divinely decreed.
“A man of high education and an astute lover of development, Dr. Sanusi strived tirelessly to successfully transform Dutse Emirate, from a quiet town to a prosperous city, increasing the economic fortunes of his people and also the tourism potential, standard of living and educational awareness. “We express our deepest condolences to the government and people of Jigawa State, and the entire Dutse Emirate on this gargantuan loss, and we will always hold in reverence, the time we spent in his presence.”
