Governor Sule further eulogised the late monarch as an astute and judicious leader, adding that the technological and economic advancement of Kuwait came alive with his wealth of experience and technological support as well as firm leadership resulting in sound economic foundations.
The governor’s delegation, which had the Head of Administration and Protocol Liaison Office Abuja, Abdulhamid Musa Tanko, joined the people of Kuwait and millions of admirers to mourn Al Sheikh Sabah’s death and give thanks to Allah for granting him the grace to have lived and served his people.
