Tinubu mourns Former Head of Service Adamu Fika

President Bola Tinubu expressed his condolences on the death of Alhaji Adamu Fika, an elder statesman and former Head of the Federation’s Civil Service, who died on Tuesday at the age of 90.

Ajuri Ngelale, Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, revealed this in a statement on Wednesday.

In grieving the Wazirin Fika, President Tinubu recalled the pivotal responsibilities he played in fostering the enduring institution responsible for the formulation and implementation of public policies at a difficult period for the Federal Civil Service.

The late Fika’s efforts as Head of Service and chairman of various civil service reform commissions, according to the President, are indelible in the annals of Nigerian history.

“Alhaji Adamu Fika’s life of service to Nigeria saw him hold various important positions, before his elevation to the Office of Head of the Civil Service of the Federation; a post he held until his retirement,” the President said.

Condoling with the government and people of Yobe State, President Tinubu said Alhaji Fika left behind a legacy of accomplishments, integrity, passion for service, and commitment worthy of emulation by public servants and other compatriots.

“May Allah forgive his sins and grant him Aljannah Firdaus,” the President prayed.
