Mark consoles Saraki over mother’s demise

Former President of the Senate, Sen. David Mark has condolence to his successor Sen. Bukola Saraki over the death of his mother, Madam Florence Morenike Saraki.

Mark stated this in a statement by Mr Paul Mumeh, his Media Adviser on Thursday in Abuja.

He described the late Madam Saraki as an ideal mother who was noble in words and deeds.

He said the success story of Sen. Saraki and his siblings, bears eloquent testimony that Madam Saraki gave her children good upbringing to be responsible and patriotic citizens.

The former senate President described Madam Saraki as “a kind and compassionate woman who made tremendous contributions to the development of the society”.

“Your services and commitment to the ideals of nationhood I believe can be attributed to Mama’s hard work, care and discipline which she imparted on you to be responsible and patriotic citizen.”he said.

Mark said that the encomiums on Madam Saraki since her transition to the great beyond, showed that she was a woman of valour who touched others in many positive ways.

He urged the children to uphold and indeed sustain the good attributes of Mama, especially her good neighbourliness and philanthropy which endeared her to many whilst she was alive.

Mark prayed that God in His infinite mercy grant the deceased eternal rest just as he prayed that the Almighty gives the immediate family the fortitude to bear the loss.
