According to him, "Ambassador Hamzat Ahmadu, was accepted as an Ambassador Extraordinary & Plenipotentiary to the United States of America in 1987. Also, as one of Nigeria's most senior Foreign Service Officers, the deceased has had a most distinguished Diplomatic career.

"He previously served as Ambassador to the then USSR (Soviet Union) and then German Democratic Republic (1975-1978); Ambassador to the Kingdom of Netherlands (1978-1981); and Ambassador to the Republic of the Cameroun (1982-1984). High Commissioner to the Commonwealth of the Bahamas. He also had Diplomatic postings to London and Bonn.?"

The Emir further stated that "?after his retirement, the late Walin Sokoto was appointed first Chancellor of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka Anambra State, Nigeria, an office I also held for 15 years before my recent redeployment to University of Agriculture, Makurdi." ?

While describing the late ex-envoy as a compassionate diplomatic officer during his days, ?the emir prayed Allah to grant him Al-Jannatul Firdaos and give his ?immediate families and the Sokoto caliphate at large the fortitude to bear the irreparable ?loss.
