Babangida highlighted Buhari's quiet, resolute, and principled nature, as well as his humility, patriotism, and loyalty to Nigeria. He noted that despite their differences, he never doubted Buhari's sincerity or patriotism. "Buhari remained consistent in his belief in integrity, order, and the dignity of public office," Babangida said.


Babangida extended his condolences to Buhari's wife, Aisha, his children, and grandchildren, praying that Allah shows mercy and forgives Buhari's shortcomings, granting him Aljannatul Firdaus. He described Buhari as a symbol of Nigeria's transition from the old guard to the new republic.
