President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has commiserated with members of the Association of Retired Police Officers on the passing away yesterday in Abuja of Alhaji Hassan Misau, one of their representatives at the ongoing National Conference.
Misau was a retired assistant inspector-general of police.
President Jonathan in a statement issued by Reuben Abati, the special adviser on the media, also extended condolences to Alhaji Hamma Misau’s family, the government and people of Bauchi State, as well as the Chairman of the National Conference, Justice Idris Kutigi (rtd.) and all of the deceased’s co-delegates.
The President joined them in mourning Hamma Misau who he said ” patriotically served his nation, state and community throughout his 34 years of distinguished service in the Nigeria Police Force and even in retirement, continued to be actively engaged with efforts to move the nation forward as shown by his participation in the National Conference.”
Jonathan urged all delegates to the National Conference to resolve to honour Misau’s memory “by rededicating themselves to working conscientiously towards further strengthening national unity, and promoting peace, security, political stability and faster development in the country.”
