A Presidential delegation led by the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed on Thursday visited Osun State Governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola to condole him on behalf of President Muhammadu Buhari.
President Buhari commiserated with Governor Aregbesola over the passing away of his mother, Saratu Aregbesola.
In a telephone conversation, President Buhari expressed sympathy with the governor, describing his mother “as a great woman who was the pillar of discipline to her children.’’
The President said the matriarch of the Aregbesola family deserved great honour for “the sacrifices she made to bring up her children on the path of sound moral character and commitment to good reputation.’’
President Buhari said the governor’s mother contributed immeasurably to the building of a respectable pedigree for her family by raising disciplined and humble children like Governor Aregbesola.
He prayed that Allah would bless her soul and reward all her good deeds with paradise, and also comfort the family she left behind.
The delegation was made up of Minister of Health Prof. Isaac Adewole, Minister of Communication Adebayo Shittu, Minister of Information Alhaji Lai Mohammed, Minister of Education Adamu Adamu and Special Adviser to the President on Media & Publicity. Femi Adesina.
