President of the Senate, Dr Bukola Saraki, has commiserated with President Muhammadu Buhari over the death of two members of his extended family – Hajiya Halima Dauda and Hajiya Ai’sha Mamman.Saraki in a statement issued by his Special Adviser, Media and Publicity, Yusuph Olaniyonu, also condoled with Buhari’s uncle, Malam Mamman Daura over the death of his younger sister.
Saraki said: “My family and I share with Mr. President and his entire family in this moment of grief.
“I urge Mr. President to be heartened and see the twin death as the will of Almighty Allah.
