Buhari mourns Kalu’s wife

The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), sympathises with former Governor of Abia State and Chief Whip of the Senate, Orji Kalu, over the death of his wife, Ifeoma, 61.

The President through his Special Adviser, Media & Publicity, Femi Adesina, commiserates with Senator Kalu and Ifeoma’s family, friends and associates, urging trust in God for comfort and care during the very difficult period of pain and deep reflection.
