“I Am Grieved” – Atiku Declares

The popular politician’s pain comes from the death of strong loyalist Aisha Alhassan, the former minister of women affairs.

Alhassan better known as Mama Taraba gave up the ghost in Egypt according to emerging details.

Atiku expressed his grieve in a short post that reads…

I am grieved by the death of former Minister of Women Affairs, Sen. Aisha Alhassan. I asked about her condition this afternoon after I called her number without a response! Inna lillahi wainna Ilaihi Rajiun! May Allah forgive her sins and grant her Aljannah Fiddausi in this holy month. Ameen.

Mama Taraba as she was popularly known, was an accomplished civil servant, astute politician and patriot. She was compassionate, loyal and deeply committed to a better Nigeria. She will be sorely missed. I really have lost a sister and a loyalist.
