 Describing the transition of Jide as “sad and painful,” the President said that the nation has been denied the services and potentials of the resourceful lawyer.

In his condolences to the Tinubus,  Atiku Abubakar  expressed shock and anguish over the sudden death of Jide.

  Atiku, in his message commiserates with the Tinubu family,  counseling them not to lose faith in the will of Allah despite the oddity of the present pain and challenges they may have found themselves in.

 “Nothing happens in this world without the will of Allah. How long we live or when to die is all ordained by the Almighty. But it’s most heart-breaking for any parent to bury his or her own child. I pray that Almighty Allah would grant the Asiwaju and Senator Remi, his wife, and the rest of the family the fortitude to bear this huge loss”, Atiku said.

 Jide, Tinubu's first son  was a lawyer. No  information was provided as to the cause of death or where the death occurred.
