Ex-Senate President Lawan pays condolence visit to Gov Radda Over mummy’s Demise

The Former Senate President, Senator Ahmad Lawan, on Wednesday paid a condolence visit to the Katsina State governor, Dikko Umaru Radda over the passing of his mother, Hajiya Sarafa’u Umaru.

Senator Lawan, in a statement by his media adviser, Dr.

Ezrel Tabiowo, expresses deep sorrow over the loss, describing Hajiya Sarafa’u as a woman of “great virtue, kindness, and wisdom” whose life left a lasting impact on her family and the wider community.

“Hajiya Sarafa’u was a pillar of strength and devotion, and her legacy lives on through the exemplary leadership of her son, who continues to serve Katsina State with passion and humility,” Senator Lawan said.

He explains that his absence during the initial mourning period was due to his participation in an executive course at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government in the United States.

He, however, emphasises the importance of personally conveying his sympathies upon his return.

“I regret that I could not be here earlier, but I felt it necessary to come in person to offer my condolences and stand in solidarity with the Governor and the people of Katsina during this difficult time,” he added.
