Nigeria’s National Security Adviser Mallam Nuhu Ribadu has sent a condolence message to detained former Governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai over the death of her mother, Hajiya Umma El-Rufai.
Ribadu’s condolence message reads
“Inna lilLahi wa inna illahir raji’un
“I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Hajiya Umma El-Rufai, the matriarch of the El-Rufai family. I have fond memories of shared moments with her and her motherly care. At a time like this, words can offer little comfort for such a profound loss. My heartfelt condolences to Mallam Nasir El-Rufai and the entire family. May Almighty Allah forgive her shortcomings, grant her eternal rest in Aljannah Firdaus, and give the family the strength to bear this loss.”
