The journalist went on to say that she hopes his family can inform the world that he was 89, not 82, because he was 48 years old when her father took over Shagari's democracy in 1983.

She wrote:

“#BREAKING 🚨 Finally, Buhari and my father Olunloyo meet for the FIRST TIME at the Gates of Hell🔥🚒😈😁.

Celebrity lawyer Pelumi Olajengbesi mourns Buhari

Unlike Kemi Olunloyo's farewell message to the late former president Buhari, celebrity lawyer, Pelumi Olajengbesi, had a one-on-one relationship with the deceased while he was alive.

He expressed how he feels about the news:

"I have found it extremely difficult to express my emotions properly since the announcement of the passing of His Excellency, Former President Muhammadu Buhari. This is largely because of my personal experience of who he truly was, beyond what some may have perceived him to be."

Pelumi, who is singer D'banj's legal counsel, said some prayers for the repose of Buhari's soul.

"It is my prayer that the Lord bless his soul and grant him eternal rest. President Buhari was a great and humble man who approached life with simplicity and lived in the fear of God. Having known him closely, both before his election in 2015 and after his tenure, I can say that he remained kind-hearted, unassuming, and deeply humane throughout."
