     President Muhammadu Buhari has described the death of the former President of the Court of Appeal, Justice Mamman Nasir, "as not only a loss to the judiciary, but also the country at large, because of his remarkable commitment to public service.”
Reacting to the death of the Galadiman Katsina in a statement soon after he heard the news, President Buhari recalled that "the late Nasir belonged to a generation of Judges and Justices who perceived public office as an opportunity to offer selfless service to the country and its people."
According to Buhari, "Nasir and Judges of their golden age were more interested in leaving untainted record of integrity than accumulation of wealth overnight."
Buhari said "when you look at Nasir's modest lifestyle and his incredibly humble possessions, you would be disarmed at once by his honesty and patriotism."
"While some Nigerians perceive public office as an opportunity to line their pockets, men of Nasir's character put a higher premium on honest labour than on greedy accumulation of questionable wealth overnight", Buhari added.
President Buhari explained that "gentlemen like Mamman Nasir succeeded in protecting their reputation because greed was far removed from their minds", and that "contentment is the secret to a happy life of service to the people."
According to the President, "lack of contentment is the devil behind greedy accumulation of wealth at the expense of others, but selfless public servants like Nasir were never motivated by the desire to live above their means."
President Buhari said "Nasir's family should be proud of their father because he built a solid and impeccable record of integrity, which is the greatest asset any individual should leave behind."
The President directed that a government delegation be sent to condole the family, the government and people of Katsina State for the loss of this illustrious member of the Katsina Emirate Council.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the unions
