Buhari said he joins the family in celebrating the matriarch, “whose wisdom, strength and support for her late husband continue to inspire and resonate, especially her dedication to the service of God and making life better for others.”
He congratulated the former Vice President’s wife, “for her resourcefulness, diligence and discipline in raising a strong family of nation builders as her children have taken up many responsible positions in the country in teaching, coaching and mentoring.” In a statement to DAILY POST on Tuesday, Buhari said as Mrs Ekwueme turns 85, he believes “her contributions to the nation will always be remembered, most significantly her unwavering commitment to the grooming of the younger generation to make education a priority, and cultivate virtues of humility, patience and hard work.”
The Nigerian leader prayed for, “longer life for the matriarch of the Ekwueme family and God’s blessings of good health.”
