The Peoples Democratic Party and a former Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki, have paid tributes to the late former president Umaru Musa Yar’Adua fifteen years after his passing.
In a message posted on X on Monday, the PDP — the party that gave Yar’Adua the platform to serve as Nigeria’s president from 2007 until his death while in office in 2010 — described him as a leader of integrity, humility, and vision.
However, Yar’Adua’s passing marked a significant moment, as widely reported, in Nigeria’s democratic journey, as then-Vice President Goodluck Jonathan was sworn in to complete the term.
