In a condolence message to the family of the deceased, Mark said he received the news of Hamza&#8217;s death with shock and pains .<br \/>\nHe said the deceased had a bright future and vision which would have been needed to contribute to the socio- economic and political development of Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to Mark:&#8221;It is sad that a promising Hamza with a very bright future ahead died in his prime. We cannot question the will of the all knowing almighty creator. We can only pray that the Almighty Allah grant him eternal rest and give the immediate family the fortitude to bear this loss.&#8221;<br \/>\nSenator Mark implored the bereaved family to take solace in the fact that death is a necessary end that must come when it shall . He told the El-Rufai family to continue to be strengthened in their faith with the almighty God, adding that &#8220;this is one of the challenges and mystery of our existence as humans because nobody knows the time and the date death would come. &#8221; Signed: Kola Ologbondiyan Special Adviser, Media &amp; Publicity to the President of the Senate.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President of the Senate, Senator David Mark has consoled the former Minister of the Federal Capital Territory,( FCT), Mallam Nasir El- Rufai and family over the death of his son,&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":27303,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-29654","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
