Buhari condoles Fika over wife’s death

President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday expressed sadness over the death of
Hajiya Tasallah Fika, the wife of former Head of the Civil Service of the
Federation, Dr. Adamu Fika.

In a telephone call from London to the bereaved, the President
said the loss of such a devoted wife of many years was particularly a
painful and challenging moment in the life of any husband.

Buhari, in a statement by the Senior Special Assistant on media and
publicity, Garba Shehu, explained that as a family man himself, he
understood the depth of pain Dr. Fika was going through at this time
“having lost a great and invaluable companion of many years and that the
deceased was one of the most devoted wives who was the pride of the nuclear
family.”

While praying to Allah to grant the deceased eternal rest in peace, the
President also wished Dr. Fika the fortitude to bear the enormous loss.
