President Bola Tinubu has commiserated with the Islamic
Republic of Iran over the death of President Ebrahim Raisi.
Raisi died in a helicopter crash that also had Hossein
Amirabdollahian, foreign minister; Malek Rahmati, governor of East Azarbaijan
province; and some other government officials on board.
In a statement on Monday by Ajuri Ngelale, special adviser
to the president, Tinubu described Raisi’s death as a disturbing tragedy for
Iran.
“President Tinubu expresses profound grief over this disturbing
tragedy and describes President Raisi as a leader who was passionately
committed to the development of Iran,” Tinubu said.
“While commiserating
with the bereaved families, President Tinubu prays for the continuous peace,
stability, and prosperity of the Iranian nation.
“On behalf of the government and people of Nigeria, the
President assures the Islamic Republic of Nigeria’s support and prayers in this
moment of grief.”
