The letter read in full:

“On behalf of my family, government and the good people of Osun State, I write to commiserate with you on the death of your dear father and eminent elder statement, Imam Shuaib Agaka. With this loss, death has indeed robbed our dear nation of an illustrious and patriotic citizen.

“Dr Agbaka belonged to a rare class of eminent Nigerians whose selfless service to our dear country will forever remain a source of reference for many generations.

“I know this must be a trying time for you and your family, for he was a formidable pillar of support who generously showered his love on his family and others around him.

“We pray for God’s comfort for your family at this time. May Allah reward him with Aljannah Firdaus.”
