President Bola Tinubu on Saturday conveyed Nigeria’s condolences to Niger Republic’s military leader, General Abdourahamane Tiani, following the death of his father, Tiani Hassane. The elder Tiani died on Thursday at the age of 110.

In a condolence message signed on Saturday by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu described the loss of a father as “a profound and deeply personal grief.”

He urged Tiani to draw comfort from his father’s remarkable longevity and the impact he made on those around him.

“In this moment of mourning, I pray that you will find solace in the enduring legacy of faith, honour, and integrity that your father leaves behind, and in the knowledge that his long and fulfilled life was a blessing to all who knew him,” the President wrote.
