President Muhammadu Buhari has sent a condolence message to the
lawmaker representing Kogi West Senatorial District, Senator Dino
Melaye.
In a letter he personally signed, President Buhari said, “On behalf
of my family, the government and the people of the Federal Republic of
Nigeria, I write to commiserate with you and the entire members of
Melaye family on the passing of your mother, Deaconess Comfort Melaye
(JP)
“The loss of a mother is usually very painful. However, I encourage
you to be inspired by her dedication to the service of God and humanity
which I believe saw her to the leadership position of a Deaconess.
Caring and supportive mother like mama are precious even more than gold.
I know she was very dear to Melaye family and you in particular, but
please take heart in the fact that she lived a fulfilled life.
“As you prepare for her rites of passage, I urged you and other
members of the family to find inspiration and solace in the richly
fulfilled life she lived. I pray that you all have the strength to bear
her loss.”
