The All Progressives Congress, APC, has commiserated with President Goodluck Jonathan on the untimely death of his sister.
According to a statement issued in Port Harcourt on Monday by APC’s
National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the opposition party
urged the President to take solace in God for the unquantifiable loss.

The party said the loss of a loved one is always an unfathomable
tragedy, which is compounded when such death occurs at an unripe age.
”We pray that God will grant repose to the soul of the departed,
comfort the President and his entire family and give them the strength
to bear their loss.
”We also wish the immediate family of the deceased God’s succour in their moment of darkness,” it said.
