The Chairman of the Forum, Senator Mukhail Adetokunbo Abiru, in a statement issued on Tuesday said Hajia Dada was not only a pillar of strength to the family but also the revered matriarch of one of Nigeria’s most distinguished families.
Senator Abiru said: “I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of the beloved mother of our colleague Senator Abdulaziz Musa Yar’Adua, the Chairman of the Northern Senators Forum.
“Hajia Dada Musa Yar’Adua was not only a pillar of strength to the Yar’Adua family but also the revered matriarch of one of Nigeria’s most distinguished families.
“Her departure marks the end of an era and leaves a void that will be profoundly felt by all who knew her.
