While condoling with the people and Government of Kaduna State, especially the Zazzau Emirate, Gbajabiamila prayed that Almighty Allah will grant the soul of the late Emir of Zazzau eternal rest.

“For those that knew the late Emir of Zazzau, he stood for peace not just among his subjects but also among Nigerians as a whole.
