The Kogi State Commissioner for Information and Communication, Hon Kingsley Fanwo has commiserated with Governor Yahaya Bello over the death of his mother, Hajia Hauwau Oziohu Bello.
The Commissioner, in a condolence message to the Governor and his family, described the late Hajia Bello as “a mother of rare, impeccable qualities”, saying the people of the State would miss the Governor’s mother.
“I had a few encounters with Mama. She was a different mother. Deep in knowledge, uncompromisingly disciplined and always pushing his children to be societal examples of humanity and excellence.
“She will be sorely missed by us all. She was our mother and a great personality who saw all is her own”, he said.
Fanwo said despite the old age of the late Hajia Hauwau Bello, his demise has left a “big vacuum in the Bello family”.
“It is a tough time for the Governor and his siblings who enjoyed a great motherly chemistry with their late mother.
“I pray that God should give the family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss”.
The burial of the late Hajia Hauwau Bello is expected to take place on Monday at her residence in the Nagazi Area of Okene, Kogi State.
