Former IGP, Musuliu Smith
PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has consoled with former Inspector General of Police and Chairman, Police Service Commission, Alhaji Musiliu Smith, on the loss of his wife, Ariat.
In a statement on Sunday by the Special Adviser to the President (Media and Publicity), Femi Adesina, the President urged the former police boss, his family, relations and friends, to take heart at the passage of a dutiful wife and mother, trusting that she has returned to her Maker, after a worthy life.
“As human beings, it will naturally be painful. But our trust in Almighty Allah is unshaken, and it is from Him we come, and to Him we return. Please be comforted,” President Buhari said.
Mrs Ariat Smit transited on Friday, aged 69, and has been buried according to Muslim rites.
