Buhari said Daura is a thoroughbred public administrator with an all-rounded knowledge and experience in life and government.
The President noted that “among Daura’s unappreciated virtues are his humility, compassion and zeal to provide mentoring to many who are privileged to be with him or close to him.”
Buhari said that Daura is needlessly misunderstood by many, adding that this is unusual “because many great men are not appreciated, which stems from the cynical obsession of many of his critics.”
Buhari called on Nigerians to apply fairness in their assessment of public figures like Daura, according to him, whose contributions to the development of Nigeria overshadow perceived flaws.
According to Buhari, Daura is a fountain of inspiration and an inexhaustible reservoir of knowledge.
