NDD Press Statement
Lagos; July 13, 2025
The Network for Democracy and Development (NDD) is deeply saddened by the passing away of former President Muhammadu Buhari earlier today.
Former President Buhari exemplified a unique standard of leadership, distinguished by his critical roles in post-Independence Nigeria. Over the past five decades, he served in key positions in both military and civilian administrations, leaving behind a lasting impact on the nation.
In addition to his well-decorated political career as a Governor, Minister and Chairman of PTF under military regimes, most significantly, former President Buhari rose to national prominence at critical moments in Nigeria's chequered history as Head of State during the military era and later in the Fourth Republic.
In those many years of selfless service, he was regarded by both admirers and adversaries alike as an embodiment of spartan discipline and integrity.
His legacy will remain a subject of interest to scholars, political actors, policy makers, and the generality of Nigerians for a long time to come.
On behalf of our stakeholders in Nigeria and the Diaspora, we extend NDD's heartfelt condolences to his family, the people of Katsina State, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the nation at large.
May Allah grant him forgiveness, mercy and eternal peace in al-jannah.
Tajudeen Alabede,
National Coordinator
Muhammad Jameel Muhammad,
General Secretary
