All Progressives Congress (APC) has announced the closure of its National Secretariat in Abuja as a mark of respect to the late former President Muhammadu Buhari, who passed away on Sunday in a private hospital in London.
According to a statement signed by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Felix Morka, the Acting National Chairman of the party, Malam Bukar Dalori, directed the closure of the national secretariat from Monday to Thursday.
“As directed by the Acting National Chairman of our party, Malam Bukar Dalori, the party’s national secretariat will be closed from Monday to reopen on Thursday,” Morka said.
Morka urged the party’s faithful to use this period of national mourning for quiet reflection and prayers for the repose of the soul of the late President Buhari.
“We call on all our members and supporters to join us in praying for the peaceful repose of the soul of our departed leader,” he added.
The closure of the national secretariat is a testament to the party’s appreciation of Buhari’s contributions to the nation’s development and his legacy as a leader. As the nation mourns the loss of a statesman, the APC joins others in paying tribute to a leader who served Nigeria with dedication and commitment.
