President Muhammadu Buhari has described the death of the founder of the NASCO Group Mr Ahmed Nasreddin as “a great loss not only to Plateau State, but also to the entire country.”
The President said this in a condolence message in Abuja.
“The pioneering role of the industrialist in the development of agriculture in Northern Nigeria since 1963 was a historic giant stride for which he would never be forgotten,” he said.
He said the late Nasreddin “was a man of vision who built the company from strength to strength and became one of the biggest employers of labour in the country.”
“The deceased lived a fulfilled life having witnessed the tremendous impact made by his company in the life of the people and on the economy of the country,” he said.
