President Muhammadu Buhari has described the death of Sheikh Ahmad Olayiwola Kamaldeen as a loss to the Emir of Ilorin, the Ilorin Community, Kwara State, Nigeria and the entire Muslim Community.
The president made the remark as he mourned the death of the Islamic leader who passed on in Ilorin on Friday.
Sheikh Kamaldeen was until his death, the Khalifah Al-Adaby of Ansarul Islam Society of Nigeria.
According to President Buhari, “He was a front line Islamic jurist and an established technocrat who rose to the position of Permanent Secretary in government and Khalifah in the service of the Islamic faith.”
The president prayed to Allah to forgive his shortcomings, accept his return and repose his soul in Jannatul Firdaus.
