APC mourns Emir of Kano, calls him symbol of peace, unity - by: Lai Mohammed - June 6, 2014 The All Progressives Congress (APC) has expressed profound shock and sadness at the death of the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado Bayero, saying his demise came at a time that his great wisdom and wealth of knowledge are much needed to help Nigeria to surmount its challenges. In a statement issued in Lagos on Friday by its Interim National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the late Emir was a symbol of peace and unity in his lifetime, reaching far beyond ethnic and religious divide to help foster a united Nigeria. It said the Emirs long and remarkable reign that spanned over half a century marked a period of prolonged peace and prosperity for his domain, which was a testimony to his much-revered leadership qualities and his uncommon humanity. APC commiserates with the family of the late Emir, as well as with the government and people of Kano State on the passing of such a great man, and expressed the hope that they will do everything possible to ensure that his legacy endures. The party prays that God will grant eternal rest to the soul of the departed, and also give those he left behind the strength to bear their huge loss.
