President Bola Tinubu has sympathised with the Na’Abba family, the government, and the people of Kano State over the demise of Ghali Umar Na’Abba (CFR), former Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Chief Ajuri Ngelale, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, in a statement on Wednesday, said, Tinubu expressed profound grief at the loss, recalling the contributions of the late ex-lawmaker to nation-building through legislation, advocacy, and policy.
