He recently revealed this via a condolence message signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Gboyega Akosile.
According to him, the deceased was a complete gentleman and officer, and he contributed immensely to the development of Lagos State during his short tenure of office.
He added that the late Kanu also aided Nigeria’s democracy, especially his fight during the dark days of the military junta for the enthronement of democracy in Nigeria.
His words, “On behalf of the Government and people of Lagos State, I want to express my sincere and heartfelt condolences to the family, friends and comrades of late Ndubuisi Kanu, as well as the Nigerian Navy, Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) and the country in general.
“As one of Nigeria’s advocates of good governance, restructuring and true federalism, the late Ndubusi Kanu will be sorely missed by the people.”
“The death of Rear Admiral Kanu is a colossal loss to the country. He made lots of positive impact and contributions during his lifetime to the growth and development of Lagos State and Nigeria.”
“He fought, along with several other patriots tirelessly for a united Nigeria during his days in the Nigerian Navy, as well as a member of pro-democracy group after he retired from service.
“He wrote his name in gold as a tireless fighter and an advocate of democratic government.”
