President Muhammadu Buhari has sent condolences to the United Arab Emirates Presidential Court following the demise of Sheikha Maryam Al Falasi.
Ms Al Falasi was the mother of Sheikha Salama, the wife of the president of the UAE, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
In a message by his media aide, Garba Shehu, on Thursday, Mr Buhari told the UAE leader, who doubles as the Emir of Abu Dhabi, that the demise of his mother-in-law “deeply” saddened him.
Mr Buhari commended the Emir for keeping cordial relationships with the federal government and Nigerians.
“The heartfelt condolences of the citizens of Nigeria are with the government and people of the UAE at this difficult moment. May her soul rest in perfect peace,” the president said.
