Retired Vice Admiral Awwal Z. Gambo, who served as the 21st Indigenous Chief of Naval Staff, has honored the memory of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari, praising him as a true patriot whose legacy will endure.

In a statement issued on Monday, Gambo reflected on Buhari’s life, describing him as a principled military officer, a trustworthy statesman, and a devoted servant of the Nigerian nation.

“As a soldier, General Buhari stood tall with courage, unwavering discipline and an incorruptible spirit. As a statesman and former President, he embodied the highest ideals of public service, personal sacrifice and national commitment,” he said.

He also shared his personal experience of working under Buhari’s leadership when he was appointed Chief of Naval Staff in 2021.

“In him, I found not only a Commander-in-Chief but a father figure who was firm yet fair, deeply principled and constantly invested in the well-being and professional growth of those under his leadership.

“His deep compassion for the poor and the less privileged reflected in his policies and personal conduct. His austere lifestyle, transparent governance style and tireless war against corruption set a standard that continues to inspire generations of Nigerians.”

He added that Buhari’s spirit will live on in the reforms he championed and the institutions he strengthened.

“Though his physical presence is no longer with us, his spirit lives on in every institution he strengthened, every reform he championed, and every life he touched.”

“As we bid him farewell, I pray that Almighty Allah (SWT) grants him Aljannah Firdaus and grants strength and peace to his beloved family and to all of us who mourn the passing of a great patriot.”
