President
Muhammadu Buhari
today visited the Lagos residence of the Head of the Interim National
Government during the annulled June 12, 1993 presidential election, the late
Chief Ernest Shonekan, to commiserate with the deceased family.
Buhari was accompanied to the Lugard Avenue, Ikoyi’s residence of the late Shonekan by Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, his Ogun and Yobe State counterparts, Prince Dapo Abiodun and Mai Mala Buni.
Buhari and his entourage, who arrived at Shonekan’s house around 4:40pm were received by members of the late Shonekan family.
The president, who was on a one-day presidential visit to Ogun State to commission some projects by Governor Dapo Abiodun administration, stopped in Lagos on his way to Abuja and spent some time to commiserate with the late Shonekan’s family.
He sympathized with the family over the demise of the former Head of the Interim National Government, who died in Lagos on Tuesday at the age of 85.
Shonekan was at the helm of affairs in Nigeria between August 26 and November 17, 1993 after General Babangida stepped aside as military president.
