Saraki Sends Condolences To Family Of Late Emir

The Senate President Abubakar Bukola Saraki, today, August 18, expressed sadness over the demise of the Emir of Misau, Alhaji Muhammad Manga III.

In a statement by Sanni Onogu, his Chief Press Secretary, in Abuja, Saraki extolled the virtues of the deceased royal father, saying his reign had witnessed peace and development in his immediate domain and the entire Bauchi state.

He said  the Emir left the stage at a time his wise and fatherly counsel were most needed especially in finding a permanent solution to the challenge of insurgency plaguing the North-East and other affected parts of the country.

He urged the people to take solace in the fact that the departed Emir lived a good life and died in the service of his people, having spent over three decades on the throne which he ascended in 1979.

The Senate President commiserated with the Alhaji Abdullahi Abubakar, Governor of Bauchi state, the immediate family of the deceased, the people of Misau Emirate and the entire people of the state.

He prayed the Almighty Allah to grant the late Emir a place among the righteous ones in Aljannah Firdaus.

Eeyah...
