“The people and Government of Nigeria have lost a great patriot, Kyari was widely respected including in South Africa, for the contributions he made in building a strong nation.

“He will be remembered for his recognition of South Africa, as strategic partner of Nigeria and of the continent, and for his personal contribution to strengthening relations between our countries.
