A statement from Garba Shehu, senior special assistant to the president on media and publicity, said the President commiserates with family, friends, and associates of the former military pilot, who ruled the country for more than 29 years, pursuing peace within outside the country, and leaving a legacy of stability and loyalty to the flag.

Shehu said as a public servant, President Buhari believes Mubarak’s sacrifices for his country, and the continent will always be remembered
