The former Senate President of Nigeria, Abubakar Bukola Saraki has mourned the death of the former Lagos state governor, Lateef Kayode Jakande.
Saraki in a tweet on Thursday said Lateef Jakande was an extraordinarily hardworking and visionary leader whose achievements as a governor are still being felt by the people of his home state.
He tweeted, “Although his loss is extremely devastating, he lived a full life in the service of his state and country.
“Hence, he will be dearly missed. It is my prayer that Almighty Allah in his infinite mercy grants Alhaji Jakande a place in Al Jannah Firdaus. Amin.”
