One of President Muhammadu Buhari’s bodyguards, Warrant
Officer Lawal Mato, on Tuesday, passed away.
He died after three years of struggling with diabetes,
presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu, announced in a statement.
The President described the officer, who had been working
with him for many years before he won the 2015 elections, as “very thorough,
trustworthy and dependable soldier who carried out his duties with diligence
and focus.’’
He prayed that Allah would ease his passage to paradise and
grant his family, government and people of Jigawa State the fortitude to bear
the loss.
Warrant Officer Mato was part of a team that former
President Umaru Musa Yar’adua restored to President Buhari as personal security
and he had been off full duty for three years due to his ailment.
