On behalf of the Governing Council, Management, and the entire staff of the National Institute for Legislative and Democratic Studies, NILDS, I extend my heartfelt condolences to former President of the Senate, Senator Ahmad Ibrahim Lawan, Ph.D. , GCON, on the passing of his mother, Hajiya Halima.
I also sympathise with the government and people of Yobe state as we collectively grieve this profound loss.
Hajiya Halima, as a mother, raised her children with integrity and a high sense of responsibility, evident in their contributions to society.
Distinguished Senator Lawan, please find comfort in knowing that your mother lived a fulfilling life dedicated to serving humanity through her community engagement.
She will be remembered as an honourable woman who brought joy to countless lives and homes.
My thoughts and prayers go out for the peaceful rest of her soul, and I beseech Almighty Allah to reward her with Jannatul Firdaus.
Prof. Abubakar O. Sulaiman
Director General, NILDS.
