Double tragedy: It’s ordained by God, Buhari to Namadi
Former President Muhammadu Buhari has told Gov. Umar Namadi of Jigawa that the death in sequence of his mother and son within 24 hours is ordained by God.
He urged him to accept what happened as the will of Allah “who gives and takes away life.”
A statement made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Abuja by his spokesman, Garba Shehu, said the former president condoled with Namadi in a telephone call.
According to Buhari, anyone who believes in humanity will be touched by the double tragedy.
He urged Namadi to turn his moment of trial into one for strengthening his faith in Allah, and rededicating his life to the causes of his people.(NAN) (www.nannews.ng)
