Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has expressed sadness over the twin tragedies in the family of Jigawa State Governor, Umar Namadi.

Naija News reports that Namadi lost his eldest son in an auto crash on Thursday, barely 24 hours after losing his mother.

In a post via X, Atiku described the tragic happenings as heartbreaking.

He prayed for Governor Namadi and his family that Almighty Allah would grant them the strength to navigate this dark and challenging time.

He wrote, “Your Excellency, Gov. Umar Namadi, @uanamadi. I am deeply saddened to hear about the loss of your eldest son, Abdulwahab, barely 24 hours after the passing of your beloved mother, Hajiya Maryam Namadi.

“The twin tragedies – the loss of a mother and your first fruit – is heartbreaking.

“The pain of losing a child — especially one as promising and beloved as Abdulwahab — is a grief no parent should ever have to endure.

“Equally, your mother, as the matriarch of your family, must have been a source of wisdom, strength, and love. Losing her creates an irreplaceable void. I pray that the legacy of her virtues brings you solace.

“As you navigate this dark and challenging time, may Almighty Allah, in His infinite mercy, grant you and your family the strength to bear these losses. May He welcome their souls into Aljannah Firdaus and surround your family with His divine comfort and peace.

“You are not alone in your grief, my dear brother. My thoughts and prayers and those of my family are with you and all yours in this moment of grief.”
