Two political adversaries of the former governor of Ekiti State, Mr. Ayo Fayose, President Muhammadu Buhari and Senator Bola Tinubu, on Wednesday commiserated with him over the death of his elder sister, Mrs. Moji Ladeji.
While the President sent his condolences via a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, Tinubu took to the social media to reach Fayose.
Adesina said Buhari mourned with the immediate family of the deceased and prayed for the repose of the soul of the departed.
“President Muhammadu Buhari prays God’s comfort for former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose, on the sad loss of his immediate elder sister, Mrs. Moji Ladeji.
“The President equally condoles with the nuclear family of the deceased, the larger Fayose and Ladeji families, friends, relations and associates, urging them to take heart, since death is the ultimate end of all mortals.
“President Buhari prays that the soul of the departed will rest in peace,” the statement said.
Tweeting on his twitter handle @AsiwajuTinubu, the former Lagos State governor and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) said, “I’m deeply saddened by the death of the immediate elder sister of the former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose, Mrs. Moji Ladeji.
“Accept my sympathy and condolences for the Ladeji and Fayose families.
“May her soul find eternal rest.
“I also pray for God’s protection on her immediate and extended family. Once again, my condolences.”
