In a statement yesterday, NLC President Abdulwaheed Omar described the late monarch as “a colossus who impacted on the lives of every Nigerian through his exemplary life of tolerance, quest for unity and peace as well as industrial development.”
Omar recalled the professional career and cosmopolitan worldview of the Emir which he attributed for the peace, serenity and industrial development of Kano.
“Alhaji Ado Bayero was surely a man of peace. Kano has had very fatal security challenges in the past. His Emirate almost became a breeding abode for all sorts of extremism, but his ability to understand the multiplicity of views, religion and nationality gave Kano a sustained peace and serenity,” he said.
