Atiku, El-Rufai visit Edwin Clark’s family to offer condolences  


Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar led a delegation, including former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai, to offer condolences to the family of the late Chief Edwin Clark, a prominent Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF) leader who passed away on February 17, 2025, at the age of 97.  


In a heartfelt gesture, both political figures visited the bereaved family to express their sympathies over the loss of one of the most respected voices in the Niger Delta region.  


Atiku disclosed the visit in a video shared via his X handle on Friday, February 21.

Atiku wrote: "Today, I led a delegation that included the former Governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, #elrufai, on a condolence visit to the family of foremost statesman and nationalist, Chief Edwin Clark. I prayed for comfort for the family of the man whose work was defined by his pan-Nigerian credentials.


"I reminded them that the passing of Clark was not only a loss to the family, PANDEF, and the Niger Delta but the whole of Nigeria that he had adopted as his constituency. The best way to immortalise him is for our leaders to promote unity and inclusiveness for which he lived and died for. May his soul continue to rest in peace."
