The wife of Bauchi State governor, Hajiya Aisha Bala Mohammed yesterday paid a condolence visit to the family of former deputy governor of the state, Senator Baba Tela, following the tragic death of his two children, Mustapha and Ummi, in a road accident recently.

Speaking during the visit, Hajiya Aisha described the deceased siblings as individuals of exemplary character who lived honourable lives and left behind cherished memories among their family, friends, and the wider community.

She prayed to Almighty Allah to forgive their shortcomings, envelop them in His infinite mercy, grant them Aljannatul Firdaus (eternal rest), and bless their family and the people of Bauchi State with the strength and patience to bear the painful loss.

The First Lady also prayed for Allah’s mercy upon the living, asking Him to accept their repentance, forgive their sins, and grant them a righteous end.
