Gov Aliyu, Tambuwal Condole IGP Over Mother’s Death

Governor of Niger State, Dr Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu, has joined several Nigerians to commiserate with the acting inspector-general of police, Alhaji Mohammad Dahiru Abubakar over the death of his mother, Hajiya Aisha Abubakar.

In a condolence message signed by the chief press secretary to the governor, Malam Danladi Ndayebo, Aliyu urged the IGP to be consoled by the fact that it is only Allah (SWT) that gives and takes life whenever He pleases.

The governor noted that Hajiya Aisha’s death was a devastating experience for the police boss, especially at this critical period when her parental support is most needed, and urged him not to be discouraged but forge ahead with the enormous task of repositioning the Nigeria Police Force.

Aliyu said the best tribute the IGP could pay to his late mother is to continue to touch the lives of Nigerians positively as he has been doing since he joined the force some decades ago.

Similarly, speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, described the death of Hajiya Aisha as a monumental loss, not only to the IGP’s immediate family but to the country as a whole.

He urged the police boss not to despair, saying it was the will of the Almighty Allah.

In a related development, Tambuwal described the death of the former administrator of Western Region, Adekoyejo Majekodunmi as a monumental loss, especially at a time his wealth of experience is most needed in the country.

In a statement issued by his special adviser on Media and Public Affairs, Malam Imam Imam, Tambuwal said the late Majekodunmi was a nationalist who championed the values held by the founding fathers of the country, even at old age, describing him as a fulfilled gentleman.
