“The President mourns Hajiya Dada, yet extols her legacy of compassion, faith, honesty, and good fellowship.
“President Tinubu prays for the repose of the soul of the deceased and affirms that the beloved and remarkable matriarch of the Yar’Adua family will always be remembered for the support, peace, joy, and comfort she offered to many”, said a presidency statement.
Similarly, the President’s wife and First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, commiserated with the Yar’Ardua family, describing Hajia Dada as a mother who played her role admirably, producing great sons including the late former President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, Late General Shehu Musa Yar’Adua and Senator Abdulaziz Musa Yar’Adua.
“I pray Almighty Allah grants the entire family, friends, loved ones and the numerous people she touched their lives the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss. May Allah grant her Aljannah Firdaus”, she wrote via a statement on Tuesday.
