Sen. Aliyu Wamakko ( APC-Sokoto North) has condoled with Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, over the death of his four childhood friends in a ghastly accident on their way to Kebbi state, from Abuja, for the Sallah festival.
This is contained in a statement by Wamakko’s media aide, Bashar Abubakar, said on Tuesday.
Recieving the Minister and his entourage, Wamakko expressed shock over the death of the minister’s friends.
He described the deceased as humble, friendly and respected individuals, saying, “the vacuum created by their deaths is too wide.”
Wamakko prayed Almighty Allah to forgive them all their sins and to give the minister the fortitude to bear the losses.
The senator also used the visit to congratulate the minister on adding a third wife into his family on July 1.
A special prayer for the repose of the departed souls was offered by Malam Bashir Gidan-Kanawa during the visit.
The minister was accompanied on the visit by the former Deputy Governor of Kebbi state, Alhaji Bello Magaji and an Executive Director, Sokoto Rima River Basin Development Authority, Alhaji Faruk Madugu, among others.
