Nasir el-Rufai, governor of Kaduna, says Robert Mugabe, ex-president of Zimbabwe ended tragically.
Mugabe, who ruled the country for more than three decades, died in Singapore on Friday.
Offering a condolence on Twitter, el-Rufai described Mugabe as a leader who meant well but stayed too long in power.
“May Robert Mugabe’s soul Rest in Peace. He started very well, stayed too long and ended tragically. An African hero all the same and a leader that honestly meant well. His life is a lesson for all in public leadership roles – groom successors and leave when ovation is still loud,” the governor wrote.
El-Rufai’s tweet drew some comments from Nigerians who suggested to the governor to direct his message to President Muhammadu Buhari who is serving a second term in office.May Robert Mugabe’s soul Rest in Peace.

“Groom successors and leave when ovation is still loud!” @MBuhari you should have done that too, but so sorry it’s going to end tragically for you!” Abbalenex, a tweeter user wrote.
You're definitely sub tweeting Baba. He should have groomed and handed over to you after first tenure.— AB Rahman (@ab_rahmanii) September 6, 2019

Mallam, You Also Started Well-Very Well, As "The Accidental Public Servant".— Vincent (@One_NewMan) September 6, 2019
But The More Stay In Public Service The Worse You Are Becoming. I Pray You Leave Before The Ovation Dies Down.
Yourself Declaration Of A Buharist Did A Lot Of Damage.
You Were Better Than Buhari.
Tell the same to Buhari and pick on or two from your advise so you don't end up the same, becasue you're already treading the same path of tragical ending. Nigerians are watching and taking notes of your political two faced moves— Oko Ìya Olaniyan (@akladus_2) September 6, 2019
