CONDOLENCE MESSAGE ON THE DEMISE OF ZAINAB ABDULLAHI

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un.

It is with profound sorrow and a heavy heart that I received the heartbreaking news of the sudden passing of Hajiya Zainab Abdullahi, the beloved sister of our esteemed brother, Rt. Hon. Ibrahim Balarabe Abdullahi, immediate past Speaker of the Nasarawa State House of Assembly.

Hajiya Zainab was a paragon of grace, piety, and quiet strength—a woman whose life exemplified the timeless values of faith, family, and service to others. Her departure leaves an indelible void not only in the hearts of her immediate family but also among all who had the privilege of knowing her gentle spirit and unwavering devotion.

To Rt. Hon. Ibrahim Balarabe Abdullahi, his entire family, and loved ones: Please accept my deepest condolences. In this moment of unimaginable grief, I pray that Almighty Allah, the Most Merciful, forgives Hajiya Zainab’s every shortfall, elevates her soul to the loftiest gardens of Al-Jannat al-Firdaus, and surrounds you with His boundless comfort and fortitude.

May the cherished memories of her kindness and resilience serve as a balm for your sorrow, and may Allah replace this loss with joys untold in due time. You are not alone; our thoughts, prayers, and support remain steadfast with you.

Once again, from the depths of my heart: Innallilahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un. Allahu Akbar!
