By Muhammad Bello

President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has commiserated with former Head of State, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) on the death of his eldest daughter, Zulaihatu Thurdday.

A statement by the President's media aide, Dr Reuben Abati said Jonathan in a condolence letter to General Buhari, prayed that God Almighty would comfort him, and grant him and members of his family succour from the pain of losing a beloved child who has been nurtured and raised to adulthood.

“I write to extend very sincere commiserations to you and your family on the death of your eldest daughter, Zulaihatu yesterday November 29th, 2012.

“I can well imagine the profound pain, sadness and sorrow brought upon you by the tragic loss of a beloved child whom you have nurtured and raised to adulthood.

"My heart goes out to you as you mourn Zulaihatu. I pray that God Almighty comforts you and grants you and your family succour at this very traumatic time for all who knew and loved her,” President Jonathan wrote.

rafhell: Johanathan is a good man but he is stupid.
Buhari on the other hand is wicked but cunny.

redsun: What does it take for apolitician to condole another another politician for a tragic loss?Just press realease,he didnt do anything extraordinary.

If buhari was really a bad egg like obj or atiku or even gej himself,nairalanders would have started showering curse on him and his family for his loss,but he is not,so bitter nigerians will rather keep mum.

Sincere 9gerian:
Has Buhari condoled Jonathan over the loss of his brother?

Ileke-IdI.:
Abegi! Let's not make it look like he sis something special, its what any president would do, even if he dosent think of it, in this case I doubt if he did, his advisers and the rest would do.

Ileke-IdI.:

Just because its not in the news, doesn't mean he didn't.

Sincere 9gerian:
Buhari can't condole someone without it making the news. Even if he did in hausa language while speaking about other things, it would still have made news. Show me ANY evidence that he did?

Sincere 9gerian: "But I tell you who hear me: Love your ENEMIES, do GOOD to those who HATE you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you"...Luke 6:27, Holy Bible. Christianity is a wonderful religion

musKeeto:
Look at this pant.

Ileke-IdI.:

Does he have to say it to the whole world, what ever happend to picking up a phone and having a private convo?

Sincere 9gerian: I'm not surprised Buhari didn't bother to condole with Jonathan. I would have been pleasantly SHOCKED if he did. Even the condolence of Buhari by GEJ was a pleasant surprise, though not all together unexpected. It takes GRACE to pray for your ENEMY and wish him or her well.
