Tinubu sympathises with NASS over death of Sokoto Reps member, Danbuga

President Bola Tinubu has conveyed expressions of compassion and grief to the House of Representatives' leadership and members in response to the terrible death of Hon. Abdulkadir Jelani Danbuga, a legislator from Sokoto State's Isa/Sabon Birni federal constituency.

After a brief illness, Hon. Danbuga passed away in the early hours of Wednesday.

President Tinubu claimed that the passing had left a vacuum in his personal family and deprived his constituents of a representative in the House of Representatives of the highest calibre and without compromise.

“His victory at the polls was, in itself, a testimony that he was loved by his people. He earned their respect. I understand that he had been providing effective representation for his constituents in the House.

“I offer my condolences to his family and constituents, as well as the people and government of Sokoto State. I also condole with the presiding officers of the House of Representatives and the entire membership over the devastating loss of an eminent colleague,” he said. 

The President prayed for the late Hon. Danbuga's soul to rest in peace and for his family to experience divine comfort.
