The Speaker described the late Hajiya Rahmatu as a woman of virtue who was a mother to all, noting that she spent her life uplifting the lives of others.
“I am deeply saddened by the passing of our mother, Hajiya Rahmatu Bello Mukaddas, who was more than a mother-in-law to me.

Speaker Abbas prayed to Allah (SWT) to accept the soul of the late Hajiya Rahmatu Bello Mukaddas and make Jannatul Firdaus her final abode.
