May the soul of Abba Kyari the chief of staff to Mr President rest in peace. May God grant his family the fortitude to bear the loss. Everyone must complete this circle someday. Be prepared.

Indeed, death is the biggest reminder of all reminders about how fickle this life is. What a reminder this particular one is. May Allah forgive Abba Kyari's shortcomings and give his family and allies the fortitude to bear this loss. Sigh!

Before you celebrate Abba kyari’s dead, remember neither you nor your father or any of your family members are immortal
Death is inevitable and everyone dies eventually

When I chatted with him exactly on Tuesday, March 24, 2020, he assured me his health was fine and that he would faithfully take the treatments. But God always knows best. Sincere condolences to the Kyari family and the Government of Nigeria. Adieu Mallam Abba Kyari. https://t.co/EZ3BX2qibd

Abba Kyari was Buhari’s right hand man. Buhari will feel this in his soul. Thoughts and prayers are with him.

The death of Abba Kyari is undoubtedly going to create a big vacuum to be filled and I won't be surprised if President Muhammadu Buhari leaves the office vacant till the end of his tenure.

So sad to see Nigerians celebrating Abba Kyari’s death? He died at 80. I pray many of us live that long. This is a lesson to Buhari. May nothing bad happen to him because Nigerians will celebrate like we won the World Cup. The reason is because he has failed so woefully.

Abba Kyari died and we are beginning to hear stories of his kindness, humility and brilliance from those who either joined the mob mentality or looked the other way when he was painted as the demon in Aso Rock
May we all have true friends and reasonable beneficiaries – Amen

Abba Kyari’s death is having me believe that Kemi olunloyo wasn’t bluffing.

Chief of Staff to the President, Mallam Abba Kyari, has been confirmed dead. May his soul find rest . 😢
Could this be what Kemi Olunloyo was referring to earlier ?
— Mojola 🦅❤️ (@Mjayjay_) April 18, 2020
Exactly. His death hopefully will make them sit up since they’ve always believed they were invincible. May his soul Rest In Peace anyway
