The press officer on local matters to Saraki, Abdulganiyu Abdulqadir, said minutes after landing at the Tunde Idiagbon International Airport, his first port of call was the Ilorin Muslim Cemetery where the late former Kwara South Senator was buried.

At the burial ground, a former national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alh Abubakar Baraje led the prayer for the deceased and the generality of the Muslim souls at the ground.

He equally prayed to God to uphold Saraki and the political family.

Saraki, who was accompanied by other dignitaries, thereafter moved straight to the Ilorin residence of Senator Rafiu, to commiserate with the family over his death.

He expressed sadness over the passing of Ibrahim, but admonished the family to be strong and take it as an act of God.

He recalled some memorable moments with the late Ojoku-born financial expert.

 

He described Ibrahim’s demise as a personal loss, just as he eulogized him as an exemplary leader, a loyal political associate, a worthy friend, and one of the finest legislators Kwara ever had.

 

“He was always loyal, committed, and quietly tenacious in achieving his objectives and goals. It’s a personal loss for me just as many others.

 

“Always just a phone call away and always ready to act for the greater good, Rafiu endeared himself to many, both within and outside Kwara State. He was known for always lending a hand, supporting initiatives, and empowering the people.

 

“It’s a huge loss to Kwara, but we cannot question God, the ultimate. His death is disheartening but we take consolation in the fact that he lived a good life.

 

“Let’s take heart and accept Allah’s will, with the assurance that he is resting in a better place, Aljannah Firdaus,” he said.
