The Nigerian leader described Dantata’s demise as a significant loss not just for the Dantata family but for Nigeria and the entire Muslim community.

President Tinubu remarked on Thursday in Kano during a condolence visit to the family of the late business mogul who died recently.

Vice President Kashim Shettima, who represented the President during the condolence visit, said in a statement by his media aide, Stanley Nkwocha, “I am here at the behest of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who said I should come here to pray and sympathise with the Dantata family over the loss of our father and grandfather, the late Aminu Dantata.

“He was a good man, full of the fear of God. He helped many people, not just here in Nigeria but in other parts of the world. He will be remembered for his good work. May God grant him Aljannatul Firdausi and comfort the family and us over this great loss”.
