President Muhammadu Buhari Wednesday paid glowing tributes to his long-time ally and friend, Professor Tamunoemi Sokari David-West, who served as Minister of Petroleum Resources between January 1984 and August 1985.

At the commendation service for the former minister, held at the Chapel of Resurrection, University of Ibadan, the President said Prof David-West would be sorely missed for his integrity, sense of accountability, and radical opposition to corruption.

President Buhari was represented at the event by Minister of State, Petroleum Resources, Timipre Sylva, and Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.

Also at the event were the Governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki, renowned academics, politicians, family members and admirers of the eminent virologist, who had attained national and international acclaim.

“The late Professor stood for all that was noble and just,” President Buhari said through his Adviser on Media, adding: “He had an indomitable spirit, stood by whatever he believed in, and was very loyal. May his soul Rest In Peace.”

The President urged Nigerians to emulate the virtues of the former minister, including his scrupulous commitment to scholarship, timeliness and loyalty to motherland.

Prof David-West passed away on November 11, 2019, aged 83.

We are still waiting for Buahri to sell fuel to us at N40 Per litre as you promised.

So this man just waka alone without his ally ��� we de watch sha

Fake man.
Of all what you and the late prof did back in the 80s, you could find him Worthy for an advisory one.

No be same man that tricked us to voting Buhari. That pump price can get to N40 per litres. We don suffer for this country.

We all are living to die someday and all the wealth we have gathered will become irrelevant. Hope our leaders and followers knows that in the next 30 years most of them would have been gone. RIP sir
