A former member of the House of Representatives, Hon. Maroof Akinwande, has commiserated with Governor Seyi Makinde, over the death of his mother.
Makinde’s mum, it would be recalled, died in the early hours of Thursday at 81.
Akinwande, who was chairman of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, secondary education board, asked Makinde to take it as the will of God, adding that the deceased lived a fruitful life.
According to him, “Governor Makinde should be consoled by the fact that the old woman lived a life worthy of emulation, nurturing his children to greatness in her lifetime. She was 82, the children would have loved her to live more than 100 but God said the time is up. It is not about the numbers of years lived but the impact one is able to make. I sympathize with you.”
