The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje, on Saturday expressed deep sorrow and his condolences to the Group Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, Mele Kyari, over the tragic loss of his daughter, Fatima.
Fatima died on Friday after a protracted illness at the age of 25.
Her demise has elicited several reactions and condolences from families, friends and other notable Nigerians.
Reacting in a message released in Abuja by his Chief Press Secretary, Edwin Olofu, the APC national chairman described the passing of Kyari’s daughter as a great loss, not only to the family but also to those who cherished her.
Ganduje lamented that no amount of words can fully capture the pain of losing a child.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with Mallam Mele Kyari and his entire family in this very difficult moment. We pray that Almighty Allah grants the departed eternal rest and gives the family the strength to bear this irreplaceable loss,” he said.
He also prayed for God’s mercy and comfort for the bereaved family, urging them to take solace in the knowledge that their daughter’s journey on earth has been completed.
