President Muhammadu Buhari has urged the family of the late Publisher of Leadership Newspapers, Sam Nda-Isaiah, to uphold the good name left behind by him.
Buhari, in a letter addressed to the bereaved family, said the good family name was worth more than gold
The President’s letter was delivered to Sam’s younger brother and the head of the family, Abraham Nda-Isaiah by his personal staff, Garba Shehu, Senior Special Assistant, Media and Publicity; Sarki Abba, Senior Special Assistant, Domestic and Social Affairs; and the State Chief of Protocol, Ambassador Lawal Kazaure.
This is contained in his condolence letter to the family on Thursday.
The Nigerian leader urged them to uphold the family’s name.
“On behalf of the Federal Government and my family, I sincerely express my condolence on the sudden transition of my friend and ally, Mr. Sam Nda-Isaiah, Publisher of Leadership Newspapers.
“Indeed, Sam’s untimely passage filled me with shock and sadness to the point that I was lost for words when the news reached me,” he said.
The president added that he will miss the deceased.
He described Nda-Isaiah as a massive fish gone out of the media ocean and the political arena.
