“Balarabe Musa was a great patriot. He was an advocate for peace and justice. He was a voice for the voiceless.
“He was bluntly frank, courageous and steadfast. He never shied away from fighting for justice. He called a spade its proper name,” Mark said.
The former Senate president said Nigeria had lost an honest and patriotic statesman.
He said that Balarabe Musa, until his death, remained one of the best and fertile minds amongst the political class.
Mark said that the late politician departed the stage when his wealth of experience and knowledge was needed to navigate through the murky terrain of the Nigerian politics.
He said that history would be kind to Balarabe Musa,as he left fond memories and positive footprints in the sand of time.
Mark, who extended his condolences to the immediate family, government and people of Kaduna State, also prayed that the Almighty God grants the deceased eternal rest.( NAN)
