Former governor of Bauchi state Mohammed Abubakar has commiserated with president Muhammadu Buhari over the death of his Chief of staff Abba Kyari.
This is comtained in a statement made available to journalists Tuesday by his Media aide Ali M. Ali.
The former governor said he received the death of Kyari with great shock adding that he is conveying to the president his heartfelt condolences and that of his family.
“My family and I feel deeply about your loss. It is our collective loss.
“We share in your agony of losing a trusted lieutenant and ally of more than forty years. Certainly his death has created a big void both at the personal and government level that will be difficult to fill”.he said.
The former governor said death is inevitable as every living being shall experience it.
“As muslims, we take solace in Qur’an 3:185 that every soul will taste death and you will only be given your compensation on the day of resurrection.
“So he who is drawn away from the fire and admitted into paradise has attained (his desire). And what is the life of this world except the judgement of delusion”. He added.
He prayed that Allah will grant the late Abba Kyari eternal rest and Aljannah firdausi and grant the president and the family of the deceased the fortitude to bear the loss.
