Former President Goodluck Jonathan, former vice president Atiku Abubakar and the President of the Senate Dr Bukola Saraki, have paid tribute to late former President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua who died 9 years ago.

Jonathan who served with Yar’Adua as Vice President and later became president after his death, described the late Yar’Adua as a selfless leader.

He stressed that the former president always placed national interest up and above self or ethnic interest.

“On this day nine years ago I lost a friend, colleague, brother, and boss, President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua. He was a selfless leader who placed national interest above personal and ethnic gains.

“President Yar’Adua was a man of integrity with a humble spirit who always took upon himself the burden of national reconciliation, peace-building, and democratic consolidation.

“He used the opportunity he had in public service to build bridges of love, foster unity and give hope to Nigerians.

“Today, I remember and celebrate him for the works that he had done. Peace he lived for and homes of peace he built. Democracy he loved and democracy he nurtured. We will always remember you for your service. A servant leader truly you remain,” he wrote on twitter.



Also on twitter, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar also hailed the former President as a patriot and a compassionate leader.

For the President of the Senate Dr Bukola Saraki, he extolled the virtues of the former president who was elected in 2007 after President Olusegun Obasanjo.

“Today, I remember the selfless statesman, former President Umaru Musa Yar’adua, who passed on 9-years ago.

“His legacy of integrity as a great leader will always remain indelible in our hearts. May the mercy of Almighty Allah (SWT) continue to be upon him. Amen.

In his tribute, Senator Shehu Sani described the late President as an honest man, a true democrat and one who respects the rule of law.

“President Umaru Musa Yar’adua died on this day nine years ago.He was a honest man,a true democrat,respecter of the rule of law and a humble visionary.May Allah forgive his soul and grant him Aljanna Firdausi,” he said.

Politicians and their deceitful ways.

Deadlytruth:

A "detribalised" Nigerian who turned a blind eye to Fulani (his tribe) Herdsmen menace which started right under his nose but was busy ordering the massacre of over 3,000 innocent women and children in Gbaramatu in the name of smoking out Niger Delta militants.
A "detribalized" Nigerian who appointed his extended family member, Rilwan Lukman, as Petroleum minister in open defiance to the countless more qualified Interested Nigerians.

The biggest fraud in politics is to ascribe detribalization to anyone.

I am not surprised at your COMMENT.
Do you know why....??
The REASON is that PEOPLE Can’t be completely satisfied. Not even between Husband and Wife.
Humans are INSATIABLE

emmasege:
Yaradua was a good president but not without his own flaws.

Like Buhari, those who followed appointments during his presidency would realise that they were skewed in favour of Muslims also. If Yaradua must appoint a southerner or middle belter for any position, it was always in favour of Muslims.

Comparatively, he was better than his Katsina brother and collosal failure we currently parade as president. At least he respected the rule of laws and listened to the people.

Did he listen to all the wise counsels to allow Charles Soludo go on with the Naira Redenomination Project in genuine national interest?

The guy could have savaged the shit hole.

MetaPhysical:


Did they remember him last year, or the year before....or the one before that?

Bloody pretenders!

shut ur trap is there a special year to remember him bloody afonja

Are we talking of human insatiability or whether these were factual or fictional? You want me to be satisfied with a man who ordered the massacre of over 3,000 innocent civilians? Are we really this inhuman in Nigeria just for the sake of political correctness?

He walked away too soon when Nigerians needed him most.... .
Unfortunately till date no Nigerian president has live up to the legacy he left behind

Sir, you shall ever remain green in our memory

Ijawdefender:
Tributes are paid only to the dead in Nigeria. When he was president Nigerians insulted him to the heavens. Yar'adua keep on resting in peace and dont mind politicians that wants to use your good name to be relevant.

The only true leader with integrity.
'I know the election that brought us to power was marred by irregularities, I urge you all to join us to build a more peaceful and prosperous Nigeria' ----Umaru Musa Yaradua.

Electoral reform followed immediately.

He wasn't corrupt, he was a true Muslim, he never lived like a rich man , he wasn't an ethnic or religious bigot. A man of peace and peace was brought to Niger Delta.


Not this clanish and unintelligent globe traveller we have in power now

Heaven bless you

You mean the reform which ended as his rejection of the three keyest proposal made by the Uwais Electoral Reform Panel that would have revolutionized Nigerian elections once and for all?

You mean the 3,000 innocent women and children killed in Gbaramatu by JTF on his orders was the way he brought peace to the Niger Delta or his amnesty offer which re-defined and recategorized freedom fighters as criminals begging for state pardon? Did the amnesty address a shred of the issues for which Ken Saro Wiwa was matyred?

Auxtin85:
Posterity judging him fairly, Abacha is still being cursed till date, Buhari will be cursed 100s of years after death

you can lie uncle. Why should we curse our best president ever since 1999? We'l continue praying for him now and after he leave us.

The best President Nigerian ever had. Came with a plan (7 point agenda), unlike the traveller that came with a useless 4 + 4 sign and zombies subscribed to it.

incogni2o:


Can someone imagine for me how Nigeria would be like if Yaradua held his 2 terms.

Bt the way, Why is churchill the one smiling here.

Both should be unhappy.

Nigeria would have been better than the US and Canada put together

This man is sorely overated.

Y'all hav no idea d sort of evil yaraduab brought upon us.

Abeg o, which bank can I go and pay in my own tribute?

Keep quiet if you have nothing reasonable to say.

TELL magazine and The News carried the results of the asset declaration exercise of the Governors in 2003 if i remember rightly.

Yar'adua was the "poorest" with 900 Million naira worth.

Bukola Saraki was richest with...can't remember the exact figures.

Where did a non-corrupt lecturer get 900 million? Business? What sort of business?.

Why will i hate a dead man ? Better use your brains where you kept them if you have any.

Now calculate how being a Chairman of all those institutions bring 900 million into one's account. Didinrin.

But at least they have remember him and that is the most important. More so is their any constitution that said any ex president must be remember compoulsiry

So remembering him now it's nothing you should insult them about and your post exposed you as typical apc who has nothing to be remember for.

Your Buhari can not and can never be remember for anything than horror and pains beside your Buhari has just decided to descend so low by trying to beg Zamfara bandits and fulani herdsmen bastards and he is planning to give them a whopping *N100billion tax payer money* to appease them. Keep watching the breaknews will burst in few hours time.

Your agony was based on seen names like Jonathan, Atiku, Saraki but you will be alright someday ok.
