President Muhammadu Buhari has sympathized with the family of Senator Kanti Bello, who passed away on Tuesday in Abuja aged 72.
The former Senate Chief Whip, who served for two terms, represented Katsina North Senatorial District between 2003 and 2011 on the platform of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Buhari in a statement by his Senior Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, sent his condolences to the Family, government and people of Katsina State over Kanti’s death.
Mr. Bello had reportedly been battling with an ailment before his death.
Earlier, Senate President Bukola Saraki, while sympathizing with Bello’s family said the late lawmaker’s wise counsel, insight and forthrightness would be missed by the Senate, his community and the country at large.
