President Bola Tinubu and late Kano business mogul, Aminu Dantata
President Bola Tinubu has paid a condolence visit to the family of the late Alhaji Aminu Dantata, describing him as a symbol of humility, generosity, and integrity.
During the visit to Kano, Tinubu said the loss felt personal, as Dantata was more than a mentor but part of his family.
Tinubu recalled Dantata’s guidance and prayers during the build-up to the 2023 presidential election, saying they were deeply inspiring.
He stated, “This is a very personal visit. I came to condole with the Dantata family and the good people of Kano. He was part of my family.”
The President described Dantata as a man who lived for others and stood as a moral guide for the nation.
He said, “If friendship exists in the hereafter, Dantata would be there feeding the hungry and comforting the sick. He served country and humanity selflessly.”
Tinubu extended his condolences to the Dantata family, the people of Kano, and the nation as a whole.
He prayed, “May Allah, in His mercy, grant him Aljannah Firdaus.” The Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, thanked Tinubu for his compassion and support during the mourning period.
